'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[TOME (Series)|TOME]]. He is the [[Fighter]] class, and has abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[Episode 1]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in Episode 15 to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:Alpha s1.png|150px|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|right]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the Forbidden Power, and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in Episode 15, his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.

==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with Kirbopher, while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One|Episode 11]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the Netkings or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In Episode 14, Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by Tigerlily, under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in <nowiki>;Mechcity</nowiki>, which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During Episode 7, a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype Ravenfreak had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, Nylocke hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword (Drain Edge equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Forbidden Power|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[Episode 10]] to [[Episode 15]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Episode 15]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Forbidden Power|Demon]] [[Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One|Episode 11]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in AvZ.

==RPG Adaption==
{{quote|Summons various elemental powers inspired by the Gods of Ancient Greece! New to the game, but holds a lot of promise and potential!|TOMERPG twitter<ref>https://twitter.com/TOMERPG/status/1212463505414246405</ref>.}}
[[File:Alpha RPG.png|thumb]]In the RPG, Alpha (born Alphons) is a newcomer to the TOME video game, much like in the original. However, in this adaption, it reveals that Alpha and Kirbopher were friends in real-life since high school, with TOME being their only means of communication when Alpha moved for college to get his BA in Illustration. Alpha is also revealed to have a liking for 16-32-bit games from the '90s due to their simplicity, growing up on classical RPG games on newer console releases during the early 2000's, after Kirbopher showed and taught him about them. Alpha's Roman/Greek attire and username came from his obsession with Greek mythology in junior high.
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's best friend Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in <nowiki>;Mechcity</nowiki>, which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During Episode 7, a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype Ravenfreak had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, Nylocke hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword (Drain Edge equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Forbidden Power|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[Episode 10]] to [[Episode 15]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Episode 15]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Forbidden Power|Demon]] [[Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One|Episode 11]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in AvZ.

*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's best friend Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[TOME (Series)|TOME]]. He is the [[Fighter]] class, and has abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[Episode 1]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in Episode 15 to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:Alpha s1.png|150px|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|right]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the Forbidden Power, and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in Episode 15, his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.

==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with Kirbopher, while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One|Episode 11]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the Netkings or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In Episode 14, Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by Tigerlily, under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in <nowiki>;Mechcity</nowiki>, which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During Episode 7, a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype Ravenfreak had given to her.

As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the Netkings or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In Episode 14, Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by Tigerlily, under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in <nowiki>;Mechcity</nowiki>, which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During Episode 7, a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype Ravenfreak had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, Nylocke hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword (Drain Edge equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Forbidden Power|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[Episode 10]] to [[Episode 15]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Episode 15]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Forbidden Power|Demon]] [[Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One|Episode 11]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in AvZ.
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's best friend Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[TOME (Series)|TOME]]. He is the [[Fighter]] class, and has abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[Episode 1]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in Episode 15 to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the Forbidden Power, and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in Episode 15, his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with Kirbopher, while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One|Episode 11]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the Netkings or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In Episode 14, Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.

'''Kirbopher''', sometimes shortened to "Kirb," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Swordsman]] class with an Enchanted Sword. He is later revealed to be an alternate character account of [[Zetto]], created solely for the fun of the game. Cynical and short-tempered, his character is based on that of the series creator, who shares the same username. Many people mispronounce his name, whether it be in joke or misunderstanding. As of the final episode of season 2, it's implied that 'Kirbopher' is no longer in use.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
[[File:Kirb.jpg|thumb|left|185px|Kirb preparing to battle Alpha]]
Kirbopher first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|episode 1]], looking down from a cliff as [[Alpha]] logs in. He challenges him to a battle and promptly loses. Kirbopher and Alpha then meet up with the rest of the gang, who are gearing up to go fight a [[Rockoon|couple o]][[Doubling|f hackers]] that have been terrorizing Lavendera.
Kirbopher refuses to join them, as he wants to play "the fun freakin' part of the game." He heads off into the woods to fight a few players, but ends up getting ganged up on. He fortunately runs into [[Flamegirl]] and Alpha, who reluctantly help him fend off the attackers before leaving to fight the hackers. Kirbopher appears at the end of the episode, slashing Rockoon in half as he attempts an escape. When Alpha doesn't notice his entrance, he goes berserk and initiates a battle.
[[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]] begins with Kirb logging into the game, looking for a round of late-night battles in ;Lavendera. He then runs into [[Sniperwheel]], who is ready for one last battle before logging off for the day. Kirbopher narrowly defeats him, and is about to challenge him to another match, when he sees [[Gamecrazed]] leaving the crowd.
He promptly follows him. Along the way, Nylocke joins him, and together they follow Gamecrazed to a mysterious mansion that is supposed to be off-limits. Gamecrazed enters the mansion, with the duo following him. Eventually, they lose track of him and run into [[Asterob]], who is working on completing the Mansion's graphics before it opens. Suddenly, all three of them are attacked by [[Splat]], who incapacitates Nylocke and Kirbopher before demanding Asterob's shield.
Gamecrazed appears and defends Asterob, ultimately defeating Splat. After exiting the mansion, Gamecrazed asks Nylocke and Kirbopher why they were following him. Kirbopher explains that they know almost nothing about Gamecrazed, but admits that following him probably was a dumb idea and he forgives him.
Kirbopher reappears in [[Fraggedquest|episode 4]], joining the rest of the gang on a quest to build and defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol]]. Kirbopher is chosen to find the idol's head at the edge of ;Lavendera, which he reluctantly agrees to do. He quickly finds it, but runs into Rockoon on his way back, who is not too happy about the outcome of their previous encounter. He steals the idol's head and runs off, but accidentally trips and breaks part of its ear. Kirbopher loses him, but does find the head and hurries back to the others, who have found their pieces. They assemble the idol, noting that part of its ear seems to be missing, and then wait in ;Lavendera for the moon to rise.
During the interim, the group discusses hanging out in real life, with Kirbopher being as cynical about the whole idea as ever. When the moon rises, the Shadow Guard Idol comes to life, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the monster, bonding with it and knocking Alpha out of the arena. Kirbopher and the gang's attacks have no effect until Alpha reappears and reunites the piece of the ear with Rockoon, making him vulnerable. Kirbopher uses his wind powers to help defeat Rockoon, before threatening to chop him into pieces again. Rockoon flees, and Kirbopher complains about the lack of reward for completing a hacked quest.
In [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]], Kirbopher first appears training with the others for the Gemini Tournament. He initiates a training round with Alpha, giving him pointers on how to fight with the most energy. When [[Flamegirl]] compliments Alpha on his technique, Kirbopher starts to argue with her about Alpha's friendship, insulting her, angering Alpha, and causing much discomfort for the rest of the group. Suddenly, [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]] appears and knocks Kirbopher away, before using her Sonic Screech ability to bring out the [[Forbidden Power]] inside Alpha. When Alpha turns into his demon form and destroys Tigerlilly, Kirbopher thinks that Alpha is ready for a fight and challenges him. Although they fight evenly for a good while, Kirbopher tells Alpha to show him "the real deal," and Alpha responds by attacking Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power, severely injuring him and defeating him. He is not seen for the rest of the episode.
Kirbopher reappears briefly in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], talking to Gamecrazed in ;Mechcity. When Nylocke arrives, he shows surprise at seeing Kirbopher back in the game, as he had been gone for two days. Kirbopher asks Nylocke to give him some advice. He had wanted to ask Alpha to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament, but after what he said in episode 5, he isn't sure how Alpha will react to him. Nylocke freezes, as this serious question is not something he wants to experience while playing the game. He dodges around the question, giving a vague answer about choosing the right path in friendship.
Kirbopher sighs and says he should probably just wait to talk with Alpha and Flamegirl, and Nylocke enthusiastically agrees with him. Kirbopher then asks if Nylocke would be his partner, but Nylocke also nervously dodges that question and tells Kirbopher to continue training until his "destined brother-in-arms" reveals himself. Disappointed, Kirbopher logs off, saying that he might stay away from the game for a little while longer.
Kirbopher finally logs back in [[Infectuation|Episode 7]], where he is determined to finally talk with Flamegirl and Alpha about the incident in episode 5. Unfortunately, he gets held up by [[Archy]], a rabid fan who has been following Kirbopher. Although Kirbopher repeatedly shuns him, Archy keeps attempting to ask Kirbopher to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament.
These interruptions prevent Kirbopher from getting to Alpha before he is possessed, and thus he shows up just as Flamegirl uses the anti-virus to stabilize Alpha. Misreading the situation, he meets up with them later outside the Balanstadium gates in ;Mechcity, just after Alpha and Flamegirl sign up as a team for the Gemini Tournament. Internally crushed, Kirbopher laughs it off and states that it's better this way, as he can now defeat Alpha in front of the entire world. As he dejectedly walks away, Archy reappears, and Kirbopher grudgingly accepts him as his partner.
Not getting Alpha as his partner has drastically upset his plans, so during the Gemini Tournament, Kirbopher acts much more serious and surly than normal.
In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], Kirbopher faces [[Skeight]] and Rockoon (under the guise of "Raccoon") in the first round. Archy is quickly defeated, and Rockoon disposes of Skeight at his earliest chance. Leaving the two of them alone, Rockoon attempts to defeat Kirbopher with his aptly-named "Kirb Stomp," but is impaled on Kirbopher's sword, leaving Kirbopher the victor.
When he sees Alpha and Flamegirl win their next round, he states that he is "not having a good time," but does not elaborate on what is irking him. Alpha tries to talk to him and warn him about Zetto, but Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's just wasting his time and that he's going to end this as soon as possible. In his next match, against Zetto and [[Kizuna]], he simply walks into the arena and raises his arms, allowing Zetto to destroy him instantly. He is not seen for the rest of the tournament.
Kirbopher appears briefly during the credits sequence of [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], sitting in ;Lavendera with a grieved look on his face.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Kirbopher first appears in the forest of ;Lavendera with Gamecrazed, gearing himself up to try and repair his relationship with Alpha and Flamegirl. When they do arrive, he congratulates them on their performance in the tournament, but before he can try to ask for their friendship, a large group of players assaults them, aiming for Alpha. Although the group is defeated, Alpha begins to lament that he is sick and tired of the Forbidden Power and just wants to be rid of it forever. With a guilty look, Kirbopher slips away and heads to the ;Mechcity docks, where he disconnects from the game and logs into TOME's moon as Zetto. This was the official revelation that Kirbopher is, in fact, an alternate account for Zetto. Kirbopher only reappears as himself at the end of the episode, standing in front of the crater in the Balanstadium where Zetto had been defeated, with a tired look on his face. Gamecrazed is there with him, telling him, "It's over."
===Season 2===
Kirbopher returns in [[Year One|Episode 11]], back to his usual cynical self. He is first seen walking towards ;Sanctuary from ;Mechcity, when he is challenged by Alpha. Victorious as usual, Alpha invites him to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher does indeed show up, and is present, along with Nylocke, when Gamecrazed is selected for the Challenge of the Netkings quest.
When Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join Gamecrazed's team, Kirbopher nearly refuses, but then caves in when the rest of the group insists that he join the team, "just like old times," as Alpha puts it. He then joins the gang the next day at the Netking statues, where he and the other four are taken up to HOME. He isn't fazed by the somewhat unexpected look of the first room and encourages the others to get going.
When [[Execk]] appears, Kirbopher taunts him, causing Execk to freeze him in a block of ice. Flamegirl thaws him out only after Alpha defeats Execk, stating he "needed the time out." Alpha says that Kirbopher helped him by revealing some of Execk's powers before the match, to which Kirbopher replies that he completely meant to do that. When a portal appears to the next room, Kirbopher follows Nylocke, telling him to slow down. In the next room, a large crystal cavern, Alpha says that something feels different about this area, but Kirbopher counters that it's probably just the Netking putting on a show. A giant crystal then rises out of the ground and shatters, revealing what appears to be Zetto, which absolutely shocks Kirbopher.
[[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] picks up right where Episode 11 left off. "Zetto" begins bragging in a very over-the-top, dramatic way, before revealing himself to be [[Rubirules]] in disguise. Kirbopher is incredibly weirded out by the experience, and almost starts the fight with Rubirules. Nylocke takes his place instead, saying that Rubirules' appearance as Zetto has made the battle personal. Nylocke eventually defeats Rubirules, and the group heads into the next area through another portal.
This area seems to be a temple in the clouds, and Kirbopher once again reminds the gang that the area design means nothing. [[Kindarspirit]] then appears and greets the group using her system voice. Kirbopher tells her that she doesn't need to be in character around them and that they know it's just a game. With that said, Kindarspirit reverts to her true personality and goes crazy over how cute Kirbopher is, grabbing him and hugging him. She then traps him in a cloud and sends him up to the ceiling. Flamegirl offers to "save" Kirbopher and defeats Kindarspirit. Kirbopher is freed, now very angry at his lack of battles, and the group proceeds to the next area. Before fighting the next Netking, the group discusses what their prize should be if they win.
Alpha suggests that they should set up some sort of meet-and-greet with the creators, and Kirbopher surprisingly agrees to the idea. [[Bitshrum]] then appears and challenges one of them to topple him from his throne. As Gamecrazed will fight the last Netking, Kirbopher must fight Bitshrum. Kirbopher is none too happy that he has to fight "the mushroom guy," and this is only made worse as Nylocke begins describing the glorious battle between a squire and a king. At this, Kirbopher loses his cool and charges Bitshrum, screaming that he's not a squire and he's not an imp. He carves through Bitshrum's box powers and defeats him, Super Mario Bros. style. From atop the throne, Kirbopher screams that he is the greatest player in TOME, better than any of the Netkings. After a bit of coaxing, he hops down from the throne. When the next portal opens, Nylocke allows Kirbopher to go before him, calling him "Your Majesty." Webmaster appears on the other side, and after a fierce battle, Gamecrazed defeats him.
After the group is congratulated by the Netkings, Zetto and Kizuna are revealed to be former Netkings themselves. Kirbopher notices that Alpha starts getting worked up when this is mentioned and tries to stop him before he says anything. Alpha ignores him and asks the Netkings about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Kirbopher states that the group isn't obligated to keep anything the Netkings say secret. The Netkings refuse to reveal anything when they see the Power approaching HOME and forcefully log the players out.
In Episode 13, Alpha confronts Kirbopher at a park in ;Mechcity to request his help for a mission to infiltrate D-Buggers. Kirbopher states that he's not going and snaps at Alpha, telling him he needs to stop trying to play the hero and just play the game for what it is. Alpha says he has to do this, in which Kirb remarks that he's crazy. They both part ways afterward and Kirb isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
In [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto logs back in as Kirb after being defeated by the malfunctioning Dragon Bug, having left him still in the game. He talks if he can't stop the Dragon Bug while in his current form, he adds that he at least tried to destroy the Forbidden Power, [[Kajet]]. Kirb calls the monster's attention before he attacks. Kirb puts up a good fight against the virus, but his sword is soon absorbed into the dragon and he begins to get crushed in its fist. When the Dragon Bug arrives from the moon, Kajet flings Kirb's damaged model into Sanctuary, where Alpha finds him unstable and unconscious.
==Personality==
Kirbopher aims to enjoy himself in TOME, choosing not to get involved in 'drama' that he considers pointless. He's shown to be very hyperactive, short-tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied by his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10. Though he's snarky and sarcastic towards his friends, and can get annoyed with them sometimes (especially Nylocke), he is shown to care deeply about them, and has a sensitive side that he seems to prefer not to show.
Throughout the series, he is shown to have a tendency of taking his anger/frustrations out on other people. From Episode 1, he decides to defeat Rockoon, despite the other already running away, out of frustration that the hacker isn't following his (Zetto's) orders.
It's also implied that Kirbopher has issues controlling his jealousy. In Episode 5, he's clearly envious of the newfound attention that Alpha receives following his defeat of the hackers, responding poorly to the compliments Flamegirl gives the other. He is also jealous of the attention that Alpha gives her. In the fact bubble for Episode 5, it's stated that he is "very attached" to Alpha as a friend<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlbwGkbWLg</ref>, and within the episode, he insults Flamegirl her by calling her a cougar, seemingly implying that he wants her to back off of the other.
As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, offering up the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. Though he probably does wish could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in [[Plan Z|Short #7]] that the 'Kirbopher' account was created to as an escape from his search for the Forbidden Power, and to enjoy TOME for how it should've been, just hanging out with his friends.
He has a tendency to talk to himself.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
[[File:Kirb_with_friends.jpg|thumb|left|188px|Kirbopher challenges Alpha to another match.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Kirbopher and Alpha are very good friends, and seem to have known each other for quite a while. Kirbopher sees Alpha as a friendly rival to test his skills against, though sometimes he gets jealous of the amount of attention Alpha gets. In the latter half of season 1, however, they become rather distant from each other ever since Alpha unintentionally hurt him with the Forbidden Power in episode 5. After an argument with Flamegirl, Kirbopher feels bad for how he acted and wants to apologize. In Infectuation, Alpha is relieved that Kirbopher is all right, but Kirbopher gets upset when Alpha says that Flamegirl is his partner for the Gemini Tournament as he thought his plan would've gone smoother. Later on in the season, he seem to be even more distant from the group because of the circumstances with the Forbidden Power.<br /><br />Fortunately, by the events of the second season, Alpha has moved on from the Gemini Tournament conflicts, and insists that Kirbopher join the group on the Challenge of the Netkings quest. Things are back to normal until Episode 13, where Kirb and Alpha's conflicting goals and views cause them to separate once again.
[[File:Kirb_with_nylocke.jpg|thumb|right|188px|Kirb with Nylocke in the mansion.]]
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Although Nylocke and Kirbopher tend to get along with each other pretty well, Nylocke is the one who Kirbopher shows aggravation at the most out of anyone else. However, when Kirbopher is feeling upset in episode 6, he immediately goes to Nylocke for help, even though Nylocke is unable to give him a straight answer. Kirbopher even considered asking Nylocke to be his partner if his plan didn't turn out as he hoped.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': Kirbopher and Flamegirl are good friends but before he seemed to generally dislike Flamegirl. There are times where he insults her about her feelings for Alpha, and because of that they often get into fights and arguments with each other. They disagree on several things, such as whether or not their time in TOME should be spent fighting hackers instead of playing the game like normal. In season 2 however, their relationship has gotten better but they still tease each other in a more playful manner.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Due to his quiet nature, Gamecrazed has not had much interaction with Kirbopher. In episode 2, Kirbopher and Nylocke attempt to tail Gamecrazed in order to learn more about him. The attempt is foiled, however, when Splat attacks the mansion. Gamecrazed was also the first person Kirbopher talks to after his fallout with Alpha and Flamegirl, and it is hinted that Gamecrazed may be privy to Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]].
*'''[[Archy]]''': Kirbopher tolerates Archy at best and outright insults him at worst. Although not stated, it is implied that Archy has been following him for quite some time, causing Kirbopher to become rather annoyed when he appears. Archy becomes his Gemini partner only because Kirbopher's other choices (Alpha and Nylocke) were taken.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher is an alternative account of Zetto. It was through Kirbopher that Zetto was able to monitor Alpha's condition. There are several occasions where Kirbopher logs in both as Zetto and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposely let Kirbopher take Zetto's Breaker Beam in order to continue through the Gemini Tournament as Zetto; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually log himself in as Zetto to confront Alpha and the [[Forbidden Power]]. After a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control, his body badly damaged.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Although Kirbopher does not actively fight the hackers, his accidental encounter with Rockoon has caused the two to have a mutual aversion to each other. However, in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], he seems to be sympathetic towards Rockoon after he witnesses Rockoon's fallout with [[Skeight]]. This may be due to him seeing the kind of trouble that occurs when a person uses two characters at the same time without admitting they are the same person.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Spin Slash''': An aerial cutting attack in which the user spins rapidly into a powerful cut. This technique can be turned into a Shockwave upon finishing.
*'''Ice Knives''': A projectile attack where a swarm of sharp icicles spread out from a slash of the user’s weapon.
*'''Dust Tornado''': A slow, but forceful projectile attack that can entrap the opponent and allows for a swift follow-up combo.
*'''Shockwave''': A powerful attack that travels along the ground and trips up the opponent upon impact.

==Trivia==
*Kirbopher and TOME in general make allusions to the number "11" in some shape or form.
**The release date for [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]] was 11-11-11, and the end of the original About TOME trailer showed Kirbopher running up and slicing the date in half.
**In the original ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Kirbopher was named "Kirbopher15". 15 is 1111 in binary.
**In Episode 10, the time when Alpha arrives at Balanstadium to meet Zetto is 11:11:11.
**Episode 11 shows Kirbopher's player ID is 001-501-111.
*During Episode 11 of ''TV TOME Adventures'', in which [https://kirbopher15.deviantart.com/art/Tsuzuku-14427657 Tsuzuku] (who would become [[Tsuzuku]] in TOME) would repeatedly call Kirbopher15 "Kirbofour15".
**This was also referenced in the [[April Fools Special]] short, in which a spoofed version of Kirbopher15 appears, named Kirbo4.
* His design seems to be loosely inspired by [[w:c:zelda:Link|Link]] from ''[[w:c:zelda:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
*Chris Niosi, along with Alpha's voice actor Blake Swift, sings TOME's first season main theme ("[[Battle On!]]").
*Kirbopher's height is somewhat inconsistent. He is clearly the shortest of the others, but in some scenes, he stands more than a foot shorter than his friends, and in other shots he is almost as tall as Alpha or Flamegirl.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in Episode 10 and Plan Z, clues were dropped throughout The Gemini Tournament arc and Episode 10 to indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person.
**Both Zetto and Kirbopher were interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher stood immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
**With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
** Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines are both, "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say, "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!"
**As Webmaster stated at the end of Episode 10, players who left the game without logging off remained in the game with their eyes turned grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after losing to Alpha after being controlled by the Forbidden Power, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Another clue exclusive to the "Kirbopher" account is in Episode 7 he hears Demon Alpha's scream and panics a bit, also telling Archy to get lost, implying that he already knows about the Forbidden Power.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor, although this was not revealed until Episode 10.
**Also, in Episode 1, during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.

'''Kirbopher''', sometimes shortened to "Kirb," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Swordsman]] class with an Enchanted Sword. He is later revealed to be an alternate character account of [[Zetto]], created solely for the fun of the game. Cynical and short-tempered, his character is based on that of the series creator, who shares the same username. Many people mispronounce his name, whether it be in joke or misunderstanding. As of the final episode of season 2, it's implied that 'Kirbopher' is no longer in use.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
[[File:Kirb.jpg|thumb|left|185px|Kirb preparing to battle Alpha]]
Kirbopher first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|episode 1]], looking down from a cliff as [[Alpha]] logs in. He challenges him to a battle and promptly loses. Kirbopher and Alpha then meet up with the rest of the gang, who are gearing up to go fight a [[Rockoon|couple o]][[Doubling|f hackers]] that have been terrorizing Lavendera.
Kirbopher refuses to join them, as he wants to play "the fun freakin' part of the game." He heads off into the woods to fight a few players, but ends up getting ganged up on. He fortunately runs into [[Flamegirl]] and Alpha, who reluctantly help him fend off the attackers before leaving to fight the hackers. Kirbopher appears at the end of the episode, slashing Rockoon in half as he attempts an escape. When Alpha doesn't notice his entrance, he goes berserk and initiates a battle.
[[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]] begins with Kirb logging into the game, looking for a round of late-night battles in ;Lavendera. He then runs into [[Sniperwheel]], who is ready for one last battle before logging off for the day. Kirbopher narrowly defeats him, and is about to challenge him to another match, when he sees [[Gamecrazed]] leaving the crowd.
He promptly follows him. Along the way, Nylocke joins him, and together they follow Gamecrazed to a mysterious mansion that is supposed to be off-limits. Gamecrazed enters the mansion, with the duo following him. Eventually, they lose track of him and run into [[Asterob]], who is working on completing the Mansion's graphics before it opens. Suddenly, all three of them are attacked by [[Splat]], who incapacitates Nylocke and Kirbopher before demanding Asterob's shield.
Gamecrazed appears and defends Asterob, ultimately defeating Splat. After exiting the mansion, Gamecrazed asks Nylocke and Kirbopher why they were following him. Kirbopher explains that they know almost nothing about Gamecrazed, but admits that following him probably was a dumb idea and he forgives him.
Kirbopher reappears in [[Fraggedquest|episode 4]], joining the rest of the gang on a quest to build and defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol]]. Kirbopher is chosen to find the idol's head at the edge of ;Lavendera, which he reluctantly agrees to do. He quickly finds it, but runs into Rockoon on his way back, who is not too happy about the outcome of their previous encounter. He steals the idol's head and runs off, but accidentally trips and breaks part of its ear. Kirbopher loses him, but does find the head and hurries back to the others, who have found their pieces. They assemble the idol, noting that part of its ear seems to be missing, and then wait in ;Lavendera for the moon to rise.
During the interim, the group discusses hanging out in real life, with Kirbopher being as cynical about the whole idea as ever. When the moon rises, the Shadow Guard Idol comes to life, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the monster, bonding with it and knocking Alpha out of the arena. Kirbopher and the gang's attacks have no effect until Alpha reappears and reunites the piece of the ear with Rockoon, making him vulnerable. Kirbopher uses his wind powers to help defeat Rockoon, before threatening to chop him into pieces again. Rockoon flees, and Kirbopher complains about the lack of reward for completing a hacked quest.
In [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]], Kirbopher first appears training with the others for the Gemini Tournament. He initiates a training round with Alpha, giving him pointers on how to fight with the most energy. When [[Flamegirl]] compliments Alpha on his technique, Kirbopher starts to argue with her about Alpha's friendship, insulting her, angering Alpha, and causing much discomfort for the rest of the group. Suddenly, [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]] appears and knocks Kirbopher away, before using her Sonic Screech ability to bring out the [[Forbidden Power]] inside Alpha. When Alpha turns into his demon form and destroys Tigerlilly, Kirbopher thinks that Alpha is ready for a fight and challenges him. Although they fight evenly for a good while, Kirbopher tells Alpha to show him "the real deal," and Alpha responds by attacking Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power, severely injuring him and defeating him. He is not seen for the rest of the episode.
Kirbopher reappears briefly in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], talking to Gamecrazed in ;Mechcity. When Nylocke arrives, he shows surprise at seeing Kirbopher back in the game, as he had been gone for two days. Kirbopher asks Nylocke to give him some advice. He had wanted to ask Alpha to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament, but after what he said in episode 5, he isn't sure how Alpha will react to him. Nylocke freezes, as this serious question is not something he wants to experience while playing the game. He dodges around the question, giving a vague answer about choosing the right path in friendship.
Kirbopher sighs and says he should probably just wait to talk with Alpha and Flamegirl, and Nylocke enthusiastically agrees with him. Kirbopher then asks if Nylocke would be his partner, but Nylocke also nervously dodges that question and tells Kirbopher to continue training until his "destined brother-in-arms" reveals himself. Disappointed, Kirbopher logs off, saying that he might stay away from the game for a little while longer.
Kirbopher finally logs back in [[Infectuation|Episode 7]], where he is determined to finally talk with Flamegirl and Alpha about the incident in episode 5. Unfortunately, he gets held up by [[Archy]], a rabid fan who has been following Kirbopher. Although Kirbopher repeatedly shuns him, Archy keeps attempting to ask Kirbopher to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament.
These interruptions prevent Kirbopher from getting to Alpha before he is possessed, and thus he shows up just as Flamegirl uses the anti-virus to stabilize Alpha. Misreading the situation, he meets up with them later outside the Balanstadium gates in ;Mechcity, just after Alpha and Flamegirl sign up as a team for the Gemini Tournament. Internally crushed, Kirbopher laughs it off and states that it's better this way, as he can now defeat Alpha in front of the entire world. As he dejectedly walks away, Archy reappears, and Kirbopher grudgingly accepts him as his partner.
Not getting Alpha as his partner has drastically upset his plans, so during the Gemini Tournament, Kirbopher acts much more serious and surly than normal.
In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], Kirbopher faces [[Skeight]] and Rockoon (under the guise of "Raccoon") in the first round. Archy is quickly defeated, and Rockoon disposes of Skeight at his earliest chance. Leaving the two of them alone, Rockoon attempts to defeat Kirbopher with his aptly-named "Kirb Stomp," but is impaled on Kirbopher's sword, leaving Kirbopher the victor.
When he sees Alpha and Flamegirl win their next round, he states that he is "not having a good time," but does not elaborate on what is irking him. Alpha tries to talk to him and warn him about Zetto, but Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's just wasting his time and that he's going to end this as soon as possible. In his next match, against Zetto and [[Kizuna]], he simply walks into the arena and raises his arms, allowing Zetto to destroy him instantly. He is not seen for the rest of the tournament.
Kirbopher appears briefly during the credits sequence of [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], sitting in ;Lavendera with a grieved look on his face.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Kirbopher first appears in the forest of ;Lavendera with Gamecrazed, gearing himself up to try and repair his relationship with Alpha and Flamegirl. When they do arrive, he congratulates them on their performance in the tournament, but before he can try to ask for their friendship, a large group of players assaults them, aiming for Alpha. Although the group is defeated, Alpha begins to lament that he is sick and tired of the Forbidden Power and just wants to be rid of it forever. With a guilty look, Kirbopher slips away and heads to the ;Mechcity docks, where he disconnects from the game and logs into TOME's moon as Zetto. This was the official revelation that Kirbopher is, in fact, an alternate account for Zetto. Kirbopher only reappears as himself at the end of the episode, standing in front of the crater in the Balanstadium where Zetto had been defeated, with a tired look on his face. Gamecrazed is there with him, telling him, "It's over."
===Season 2===
Kirbopher returns in [[Year One|Episode 11]], back to his usual cynical self. He is first seen walking towards ;Sanctuary from ;Mechcity, when he is challenged by Alpha. Victorious as usual, Alpha invites him to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher does indeed show up, and is present, along with Nylocke, when Gamecrazed is selected for the Challenge of the Netkings quest.
When Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join Gamecrazed's team, Kirbopher nearly refuses, but then caves in when the rest of the group insists that he join the team, "just like old times," as Alpha puts it. He then joins the gang the next day at the Netking statues, where he and the other four are taken up to HOME. He isn't fazed by the somewhat unexpected look of the first room and encourages the others to get going.
When [[Execk]] appears, Kirbopher taunts him, causing Execk to freeze him in a block of ice. Flamegirl thaws him out only after Alpha defeats Execk, stating he "needed the time out." Alpha says that Kirbopher helped him by revealing some of Execk's powers before the match, to which Kirbopher replies that he completely meant to do that. When a portal appears to the next room, Kirbopher follows Nylocke, telling him to slow down. In the next room, a large crystal cavern, Alpha says that something feels different about this area, but Kirbopher counters that it's probably just the Netking putting on a show. A giant crystal then rises out of the ground and shatters, revealing what appears to be Zetto, which absolutely shocks Kirbopher.
[[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] picks up right where Episode 11 left off. "Zetto" begins bragging in a very over-the-top, dramatic way, before revealing himself to be [[Rubirules]] in disguise. Kirbopher is incredibly weirded out by the experience, and almost starts the fight with Rubirules. Nylocke takes his place instead, saying that Rubirules' appearance as Zetto has made the battle personal. Nylocke eventually defeats Rubirules, and the group heads into the next area through another portal.
This area seems to be a temple in the clouds, and Kirbopher once again reminds the gang that the area design means nothing. [[Kindarspirit]] then appears and greets the group using her system voice. Kirbopher tells her that she doesn't need to be in character around them and that they know it's just a game. With that said, Kindarspirit reverts to her true personality and goes crazy over how cute Kirbopher is, grabbing him and hugging him. She then traps him in a cloud and sends him up to the ceiling. Flamegirl offers to "save" Kirbopher and defeats Kindarspirit. Kirbopher is freed, now very angry at his lack of battles, and the group proceeds to the next area. Before fighting the next Netking, the group discusses what their prize should be if they win.
Alpha suggests that they should set up some sort of meet-and-greet with the creators, and Kirbopher surprisingly agrees to the idea. [[Bitshrum]] then appears and challenges one of them to topple him from his throne. As Gamecrazed will fight the last Netking, Kirbopher must fight Bitshrum. Kirbopher is none too happy that he has to fight "the mushroom guy," and this is only made worse as Nylocke begins describing the glorious battle between a squire and a king. At this, Kirbopher loses his cool and charges Bitshrum, screaming that he's not a squire and he's not an imp. He carves through Bitshrum's box powers and defeats him, Super Mario Bros. style. From atop the throne, Kirbopher screams that he is the greatest player in TOME, better than any of the Netkings. After a bit of coaxing, he hops down from the throne. When the next portal opens, Nylocke allows Kirbopher to go before him, calling him "Your Majesty." Webmaster appears on the other side, and after a fierce battle, Gamecrazed defeats him.
After the group is congratulated by the Netkings, Zetto and Kizuna are revealed to be former Netkings themselves. Kirbopher notices that Alpha starts getting worked up when this is mentioned and tries to stop him before he says anything. Alpha ignores him and asks the Netkings about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Kirbopher states that the group isn't obligated to keep anything the Netkings say secret. The Netkings refuse to reveal anything when they see the Power approaching HOME and forcefully log the players out.
In Episode 13, Alpha confronts Kirbopher at a park in ;Mechcity to request his help for a mission to infiltrate D-Buggers. Kirbopher states that he's not going and snaps at Alpha, telling him he needs to stop trying to play the hero and just play the game for what it is. Alpha says he has to do this, in which Kirb remarks that he's crazy. They both part ways afterward and Kirb isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
In [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto logs back in as Kirb after being defeated by the malfunctioning Dragon Bug, having left him still in the game. He talks if he can't stop the Dragon Bug while in his current form, he adds that he at least tried to destroy the Forbidden Power, [[Kajet]]. Kirb calls the monster's attention before he attacks. Kirb puts up a good fight against the virus, but his sword is soon absorbed into the dragon and he begins to get crushed in its fist. When the Dragon Bug arrives from the moon, Kajet flings Kirb's damaged model into Sanctuary, where Alpha finds him unstable and unconscious.
==Personality==
Kirbopher aims to enjoy himself in TOME, choosing not to get involved in 'drama' that he considers pointless. He's shown to be very hyperactive, short-tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied by his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10. Though he's snarky and sarcastic towards his friends, and can get annoyed with them sometimes (especially Nylocke), he is shown to care deeply about them, and has a sensitive side that he seems to prefer not to show.
Throughout the series, he is shown to have a tendency of taking his anger/frustrations out on other people. From Episode 1, he decides to defeat Rockoon, despite the other already running away, out of frustration that the hacker isn't following his (Zetto's) orders.
It's also implied that Kirbopher has issues controlling his jealousy. In Episode 5, he's clearly envious of the newfound attention that Alpha receives following his defeat of the hackers, responding poorly to the compliments Flamegirl gives the other. He is also jealous of the attention that Alpha gives her. In the fact bubble for Episode 5, it's stated that he is "very attached" to Alpha as a friend<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlbwGkbWLg</ref>, and within the episode, he insults Flamegirl her by calling her a cougar, seemingly implying that he wants her to back off of the other.
As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, offering up the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. Though he probably does wish could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in [[Plan Z|Short #7]] that the 'Kirbopher' account was created to as an escape from his search for the Forbidden Power, and to enjoy TOME for how it should've been, just hanging out with his friends.
He has a tendency to talk to himself.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
[[File:Kirb_with_friends.jpg|thumb|left|188px|Kirbopher challenges Alpha to another match.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Kirbopher and Alpha are very good friends, and seem to have known each other for quite a while. Kirbopher sees Alpha as a friendly rival to test his skills against, though sometimes he gets jealous of the amount of attention Alpha gets. In the latter half of season 1, however, they become rather distant from each other ever since Alpha unintentionally hurt him with the Forbidden Power in episode 5. After an argument with Flamegirl, Kirbopher feels bad for how he acted and wants to apologize. In Infectuation, Alpha is relieved that Kirbopher is all right, but Kirbopher gets upset when Alpha says that Flamegirl is his partner for the Gemini Tournament as he thought his plan would've gone smoother. Later on in the season, he seem to be even more distant from the group because of the circumstances with the Forbidden Power.<br /><br />Fortunately, by the events of the second season, Alpha has moved on from the Gemini Tournament conflicts, and insists that Kirbopher join the group on the Challenge of the Netkings quest. Things are back to normal until Episode 13, where Kirb and Alpha's conflicting goals and views cause them to separate once again.
[[File:Kirb_with_nylocke.jpg|thumb|right|188px|Kirb with Nylocke in the mansion.]]
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Although Nylocke and Kirbopher tend to get along with each other pretty well, Nylocke is the one who Kirbopher shows aggravation at the most out of anyone else. However, when Kirbopher is feeling upset in episode 6, he immediately goes to Nylocke for help, even though Nylocke is unable to give him a straight answer. Kirbopher even considered asking Nylocke to be his partner if his plan didn't turn out as he hoped.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': Kirbopher and Flamegirl are good friends but before he seemed to generally dislike Flamegirl. There are times where he insults her about her feelings for Alpha, and because of that they often get into fights and arguments with each other. They disagree on several things, such as whether or not their time in TOME should be spent fighting hackers instead of playing the game like normal. In season 2 however, their relationship has gotten better but they still tease each other in a more playful manner.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Due to his quiet nature, Gamecrazed has not had much interaction with Kirbopher. In episode 2, Kirbopher and Nylocke attempt to tail Gamecrazed in order to learn more about him. The attempt is foiled, however, when Splat attacks the mansion. Gamecrazed was also the first person Kirbopher talks to after his fallout with Alpha and Flamegirl, and it is hinted that Gamecrazed may be privy to Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]].
*'''[[Archy]]''': Kirbopher tolerates Archy at best and outright insults him at worst. Although not stated, it is implied that Archy has been following him for quite some time, causing Kirbopher to become rather annoyed when he appears. Archy becomes his Gemini partner only because Kirbopher's other choices (Alpha and Nylocke) were taken.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher is an alternative account of Zetto. It was through Kirbopher that Zetto was able to monitor Alpha's condition. There are several occasions where Kirbopher logs in both as Zetto and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposely let Kirbopher take Zetto's Breaker Beam in order to continue through the Gemini Tournament as Zetto; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually log himself in as Zetto to confront Alpha and the [[Forbidden Power]]. After a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control, his body badly damaged.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Although Kirbopher does not actively fight the hackers, his accidental encounter with Rockoon has caused the two to have a mutual aversion to each other. However, in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], he seems to be sympathetic towards Rockoon after he witnesses Rockoon's fallout with [[Skeight]]. This may be due to him seeing the kind of trouble that occurs when a person uses two characters at the same time without admitting they are the same person.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Spin Slash''': An aerial cutting attack in which the user spins rapidly into a powerful cut. This technique can be turned into a Shockwave upon finishing.
*'''Ice Knives''': A projectile attack where a swarm of sharp icicles spread out from a slash of the user’s weapon.
*'''Dust Tornado''': A slow, but forceful projectile attack that can entrap the opponent and allows for a swift follow-up combo.
*'''Shockwave''': A powerful attack that travels along the ground and trips up the opponent upon impact.

==Trivia==
*Kirbopher and TOME in general make allusions to the number "11" in some shape or form.
**The release date for [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]] was 11-11-11, and the end of the original About TOME trailer showed Kirbopher running up and slicing the date in half.
**In the original ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Kirbopher was named "Kirbopher15". 15 is 1111 in binary.
**In Episode 10, the time when Alpha arrives at Balanstadium to meet Zetto is 11:11:11.
**Episode 11 shows Kirbopher's player ID is 001-501-111.
*During Episode 11 of ''TV TOME Adventures'', in which [https://kirbopher15.deviantart.com/art/Tsuzuku-14427657 Tsuzuku] (who would become [[Tsuzuku]] in TOME) would repeatedly call Kirbopher15 "Kirbofour15".
**This was also referenced in the [[April Fools Special]] short, in which a spoofed version of Kirbopher15 appears, named Kirbo4.
* His design seems to be loosely inspired by [[w:c:zelda:Link|Link]] from ''[[w:c:zelda:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
*Chris Niosi, along with Alpha's voice actor Blake Swift, sings TOME's first season main theme ("[[Battle On!]]").
*Kirbopher's height is somewhat inconsistent. He is clearly the shortest of the others, but in some scenes, he stands more than a foot shorter than his friends, and in other shots he is almost as tall as Alpha or Flamegirl.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in Episode 10 and Plan Z, clues were dropped throughout The Gemini Tournament arc and Episode 10 to indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person.
**Both Zetto and Kirbopher were interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher stood immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
**With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
** Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines are both, "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say, "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!"
**As Webmaster stated at the end of Episode 10, players who left the game without logging off remained in the game with their eyes turned grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after losing to Alpha after being controlled by the Forbidden Power, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Another clue exclusive to the "Kirbopher" account is in Episode 7 he hears Demon Alpha's scream and panics a bit, also telling Archy to get lost, implying that he already knows about the Forbidden Power.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor, although this was not revealed until Episode 10.
**Also, in Episode 1, during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.

'''Kirbopher''', sometimes shortened to "Kirb," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Swordsman]] class with an Enchanted Sword. He is later revealed to be an alternate character account of [[Zetto]], created solely for the fun of the game. Cynical and short-tempered, his character is based on that of the series creator, who shares the same username. Many people mispronounce his name, whether it be in joke or misunderstanding. As of the final episode of season 2, it's implied that 'Kirbopher' is no longer in use.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
[[File:Kirb.jpg|thumb|left|185px|Kirb preparing to battle Alpha]]
Kirbopher first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|episode 1]], looking down from a cliff as [[Alpha]] logs in. He challenges him to a battle and promptly loses. Kirbopher and Alpha then meet up with the rest of the gang, who are gearing up to go fight a [[Rockoon|couple o]][[Doubling|f hackers]] that have been terrorizing Lavendera.
Kirbopher refuses to join them, as he wants to play "the fun freakin' part of the game." He heads off into the woods to fight a few players, but ends up getting ganged up on. He fortunately runs into [[Flamegirl]] and Alpha, who reluctantly help him fend off the attackers before leaving to fight the hackers. Kirbopher appears at the end of the episode, slashing Rockoon in half as he attempts an escape. When Alpha doesn't notice his entrance, he goes berserk and initiates a battle.
[[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]] begins with Kirb logging into the game, looking for a round of late-night battles in ;Lavendera. He then runs into [[Sniperwheel]], who is ready for one last battle before logging off for the day. Kirbopher narrowly defeats him, and is about to challenge him to another match, when he sees [[Gamecrazed]] leaving the crowd.
He promptly follows him. Along the way, Nylocke joins him, and together they follow Gamecrazed to a mysterious mansion that is supposed to be off-limits. Gamecrazed enters the mansion, with the duo following him. Eventually, they lose track of him and run into [[Asterob]], who is working on completing the Mansion's graphics before it opens. Suddenly, all three of them are attacked by [[Splat]], who incapacitates Nylocke and Kirbopher before demanding Asterob's shield.
Gamecrazed appears and defends Asterob, ultimately defeating Splat. After exiting the mansion, Gamecrazed asks Nylocke and Kirbopher why they were following him. Kirbopher explains that they know almost nothing about Gamecrazed, but admits that following him probably was a dumb idea and he forgives him.
Kirbopher reappears in [[Fraggedquest|episode 4]], joining the rest of the gang on a quest to build and defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol]]. Kirbopher is chosen to find the idol's head at the edge of ;Lavendera, which he reluctantly agrees to do. He quickly finds it, but runs into Rockoon on his way back, who is not too happy about the outcome of their previous encounter. He steals the idol's head and runs off, but accidentally trips and breaks part of its ear. Kirbopher loses him, but does find the head and hurries back to the others, who have found their pieces. They assemble the idol, noting that part of its ear seems to be missing, and then wait in ;Lavendera for the moon to rise.
During the interim, the group discusses hanging out in real life, with Kirbopher being as cynical about the whole idea as ever. When the moon rises, the Shadow Guard Idol comes to life, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the monster, bonding with it and knocking Alpha out of the arena. Kirbopher and the gang's attacks have no effect until Alpha reappears and reunites the piece of the ear with Rockoon, making him vulnerable. Kirbopher uses his wind powers to help defeat Rockoon, before threatening to chop him into pieces again. Rockoon flees, and Kirbopher complains about the lack of reward for completing a hacked quest.
In [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]], Kirbopher first appears training with the others for the Gemini Tournament. He initiates a training round with Alpha, giving him pointers on how to fight with the most energy. When [[Flamegirl]] compliments Alpha on his technique, Kirbopher starts to argue with her about Alpha's friendship, insulting her, angering Alpha, and causing much discomfort for the rest of the group. Suddenly, [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]] appears and knocks Kirbopher away, before using her Sonic Screech ability to bring out the [[Forbidden Power]] inside Alpha. When Alpha turns into his demon form and destroys Tigerlilly, Kirbopher thinks that Alpha is ready for a fight and challenges him. Although they fight evenly for a good while, Kirbopher tells Alpha to show him "the real deal," and Alpha responds by attacking Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power, severely injuring him and defeating him. He is not seen for the rest of the episode.
Kirbopher reappears briefly in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], talking to Gamecrazed in ;Mechcity. When Nylocke arrives, he shows surprise at seeing Kirbopher back in the game, as he had been gone for two days. Kirbopher asks Nylocke to give him some advice. He had wanted to ask Alpha to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament, but after what he said in episode 5, he isn't sure how Alpha will react to him. Nylocke freezes, as this serious question is not something he wants to experience while playing the game. He dodges around the question, giving a vague answer about choosing the right path in friendship.
Kirbopher sighs and says he should probably just wait to talk with Alpha and Flamegirl, and Nylocke enthusiastically agrees with him. Kirbopher then asks if Nylocke would be his partner, but Nylocke also nervously dodges that question and tells Kirbopher to continue training until his "destined brother-in-arms" reveals himself. Disappointed, Kirbopher logs off, saying that he might stay away from the game for a little while longer.
Kirbopher finally logs back in [[Infectuation|Episode 7]], where he is determined to finally talk with Flamegirl and Alpha about the incident in episode 5. Unfortunately, he gets held up by [[Archy]], a rabid fan who has been following Kirbopher. Although Kirbopher repeatedly shuns him, Archy keeps attempting to ask Kirbopher to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament.
These interruptions prevent Kirbopher from getting to Alpha before he is possessed, and thus he shows up just as Flamegirl uses the anti-virus to stabilize Alpha. Misreading the situation, he meets up with them later outside the Balanstadium gates in ;Mechcity, just after Alpha and Flamegirl sign up as a team for the Gemini Tournament. Internally crushed, Kirbopher laughs it off and states that it's better this way, as he can now defeat Alpha in front of the entire world. As he dejectedly walks away, Archy reappears, and Kirbopher grudgingly accepts him as his partner.
Not getting Alpha as his partner has drastically upset his plans, so during the Gemini Tournament, Kirbopher acts much more serious and surly than normal.
In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], Kirbopher faces [[Skeight]] and Rockoon (under the guise of "Raccoon") in the first round. Archy is quickly defeated, and Rockoon disposes of Skeight at his earliest chance. Leaving the two of them alone, Rockoon attempts to defeat Kirbopher with his aptly-named "Kirb Stomp," but is impaled on Kirbopher's sword, leaving Kirbopher the victor.
When he sees Alpha and Flamegirl win their next round, he states that he is "not having a good time," but does not elaborate on what is irking him. Alpha tries to talk to him and warn him about Zetto, but Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's just wasting his time and that he's going to end this as soon as possible. In his next match, against Zetto and [[Kizuna]], he simply walks into the arena and raises his arms, allowing Zetto to destroy him instantly. He is not seen for the rest of the tournament.
Kirbopher appears briefly during the credits sequence of [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], sitting in ;Lavendera with a grieved look on his face.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Kirbopher first appears in the forest of ;Lavendera with Gamecrazed, gearing himself up to try and repair his relationship with Alpha and Flamegirl. When they do arrive, he congratulates them on their performance in the tournament, but before he can try to ask for their friendship, a large group of players assaults them, aiming for Alpha. Although the group is defeated, Alpha begins to lament that he is sick and tired of the Forbidden Power and just wants to be rid of it forever. With a guilty look, Kirbopher slips away and heads to the ;Mechcity docks, where he disconnects from the game and logs into TOME's moon as Zetto. This was the official revelation that Kirbopher is, in fact, an alternate account for Zetto. Kirbopher only reappears as himself at the end of the episode, standing in front of the crater in the Balanstadium where Zetto had been defeated, with a tired look on his face. Gamecrazed is there with him, telling him, "It's over."
===Season 2===
Kirbopher returns in [[Year One|Episode 11]], back to his usual cynical self. He is first seen walking towards ;Sanctuary from ;Mechcity, when he is challenged by Alpha. Victorious as usual, Alpha invites him to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher does indeed show up, and is present, along with Nylocke, when Gamecrazed is selected for the Challenge of the Netkings quest.
When Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join Gamecrazed's team, Kirbopher nearly refuses, but then caves in when the rest of the group insists that he join the team, "just like old times," as Alpha puts it. He then joins the gang the next day at the Netking statues, where he and the other four are taken up to HOME. He isn't fazed by the somewhat unexpected look of the first room and encourages the others to get going.
When [[Execk]] appears, Kirbopher taunts him, causing Execk to freeze him in a block of ice. Flamegirl thaws him out only after Alpha defeats Execk, stating he "needed the time out." Alpha says that Kirbopher helped him by revealing some of Execk's powers before the match, to which Kirbopher replies that he completely meant to do that. When a portal appears to the next room, Kirbopher follows Nylocke, telling him to slow down. In the next room, a large crystal cavern, Alpha says that something feels different about this area, but Kirbopher counters that it's probably just the Netking putting on a show. A giant crystal then rises out of the ground and shatters, revealing what appears to be Zetto, which absolutely shocks Kirbopher.
[[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] picks up right where Episode 11 left off. "Zetto" begins bragging in a very over-the-top, dramatic way, before revealing himself to be [[Rubirules]] in disguise. Kirbopher is incredibly weirded out by the experience, and almost starts the fight with Rubirules. Nylocke takes his place instead, saying that Rubirules' appearance as Zetto has made the battle personal. Nylocke eventually defeats Rubirules, and the group heads into the next area through another portal.
This area seems to be a temple in the clouds, and Kirbopher once again reminds the gang that the area design means nothing. [[Kindarspirit]] then appears and greets the group using her system voice. Kirbopher tells her that she doesn't need to be in character around them and that they know it's just a game. With that said, Kindarspirit reverts to her true personality and goes crazy over how cute Kirbopher is, grabbing him and hugging him. She then traps him in a cloud and sends him up to the ceiling. Flamegirl offers to "save" Kirbopher and defeats Kindarspirit. Kirbopher is freed, now very angry at his lack of battles, and the group proceeds to the next area. Before fighting the next Netking, the group discusses what their prize should be if they win.
Alpha suggests that they should set up some sort of meet-and-greet with the creators, and Kirbopher surprisingly agrees to the idea. [[Bitshrum]] then appears and challenges one of them to topple him from his throne. As Gamecrazed will fight the last Netking, Kirbopher must fight Bitshrum. Kirbopher is none too happy that he has to fight "the mushroom guy," and this is only made worse as Nylocke begins describing the glorious battle between a squire and a king. At this, Kirbopher loses his cool and charges Bitshrum, screaming that he's not a squire and he's not an imp. He carves through Bitshrum's box powers and defeats him, Super Mario Bros. style. From atop the throne, Kirbopher screams that he is the greatest player in TOME, better than any of the Netkings. After a bit of coaxing, he hops down from the throne. When the next portal opens, Nylocke allows Kirbopher to go before him, calling him "Your Majesty." Webmaster appears on the other side, and after a fierce battle, Gamecrazed defeats him.
After the group is congratulated by the Netkings, Zetto and Kizuna are revealed to be former Netkings themselves. Kirbopher notices that Alpha starts getting worked up when this is mentioned and tries to stop him before he says anything. Alpha ignores him and asks the Netkings about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Kirbopher states that the group isn't obligated to keep anything the Netkings say secret. The Netkings refuse to reveal anything when they see the Power approaching HOME and forcefully log the players out.
In Episode 13, Alpha confronts Kirbopher at a park in ;Mechcity to request his help for a mission to infiltrate D-Buggers. Kirbopher states that he's not going and snaps at Alpha, telling him he needs to stop trying to play the hero and just play the game for what it is. Alpha says he has to do this, in which Kirb remarks that he's crazy. They both part ways afterward and Kirb isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
In [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto logs back in as Kirb after being defeated by the malfunctioning Dragon Bug, having left him still in the game. He talks if he can't stop the Dragon Bug while in his current form, he adds that he at least tried to destroy the Forbidden Power, [[Kajet]]. Kirb calls the monster's attention before he attacks. Kirb puts up a good fight against the virus, but his sword is soon absorbed into the dragon and he begins to get crushed in its fist. When the Dragon Bug arrives from the moon, Kajet flings Kirb's damaged model into Sanctuary, where Alpha finds him unstable and unconscious.
==Personality==
Kirbopher aims to enjoy himself in TOME, choosing not to get involved in 'drama' that he considers pointless. He's shown to be very hyperactive, short-tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied by his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10. Though he's snarky and sarcastic towards his friends, and can get annoyed with them sometimes (especially Nylocke), he is shown to care deeply about them, and has a sensitive side that he seems to prefer not to show.
Throughout the series, he is shown to have a tendency of taking his anger/frustrations out on other people. From Episode 1, he decides to defeat Rockoon, despite the other already running away, out of frustration that the hacker isn't following his (Zetto's) orders.
It's also implied that Kirbopher has issues controlling his jealousy. In Episode 5, he's clearly envious of the newfound attention that Alpha receives following his defeat of the hackers, responding poorly to the compliments Flamegirl gives the other. He is also jealous of the attention that Alpha gives her. In the fact bubble for Episode 5, it's stated that he is "very attached" to Alpha as a friend<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlbwGkbWLg</ref>, and within the episode, he insults Flamegirl her by calling her a cougar, seemingly implying that he wants her to back off of the other.
As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, offering up the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. Though he probably does wish could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in [[Plan Z|Short #7]] that the 'Kirbopher' account was created to as an escape from his search for the Forbidden Power, and to enjoy TOME for how it should've been, just hanging out with his friends.
He has a tendency to talk to himself.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
[[File:Kirb_with_friends.jpg|thumb|left|188px|Kirbopher challenges Alpha to another match.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Kirbopher and Alpha are very good friends, and seem to have known each other for quite a while. Kirbopher sees Alpha as a friendly rival to test his skills against, though sometimes he gets jealous of the amount of attention Alpha gets. In the latter half of season 1, however, they become rather distant from each other ever since Alpha unintentionally hurt him with the Forbidden Power in episode 5. After an argument with Flamegirl, Kirbopher feels bad for how he acted and wants to apologize. In Infectuation, Alpha is relieved that Kirbopher is all right, but Kirbopher gets upset when Alpha says that Flamegirl is his partner for the Gemini Tournament as he thought his plan would've gone smoother. Later on in the season, he seem to be even more distant from the group because of the circumstances with the Forbidden Power.<br /><br />Fortunately, by the events of the second season, Alpha has moved on from the Gemini Tournament conflicts, and insists that Kirbopher join the group on the Challenge of the Netkings quest. Things are back to normal until Episode 13, where Kirb and Alpha's conflicting goals and views cause them to separate once again.
[[File:Kirb_with_nylocke.jpg|thumb|right|188px|Kirb with Nylocke in the mansion.]]
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Although Nylocke and Kirbopher tend to get along with each other pretty well, Nylocke is the one who Kirbopher shows aggravation at the most out of anyone else. However, when Kirbopher is feeling upset in episode 6, he immediately goes to Nylocke for help, even though Nylocke is unable to give him a straight answer. Kirbopher even considered asking Nylocke to be his partner if his plan didn't turn out as he hoped.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': Kirbopher and Flamegirl are good friends but before he seemed to generally dislike Flamegirl. There are times where he insults her about her feelings for Alpha, and because of that they often get into fights and arguments with each other. They disagree on several things, such as whether or not their time in TOME should be spent fighting hackers instead of playing the game like normal. In season 2 however, their relationship has gotten better but they still tease each other in a more playful manner.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Due to his quiet nature, Gamecrazed has not had much interaction with Kirbopher. In episode 2, Kirbopher and Nylocke attempt to tail Gamecrazed in order to learn more about him. The attempt is foiled, however, when Splat attacks the mansion. Gamecrazed was also the first person Kirbopher talks to after his fallout with Alpha and Flamegirl, and it is hinted that Gamecrazed may be privy to Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]].
*'''[[Archy]]''': Kirbopher tolerates Archy at best and outright insults him at worst. Although not stated, it is implied that Archy has been following him for quite some time, causing Kirbopher to become rather annoyed when he appears. Archy becomes his Gemini partner only because Kirbopher's other choices (Alpha and Nylocke) were taken.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher is an alternative account of Zetto. It was through Kirbopher that Zetto was able to monitor Alpha's condition. There are several occasions where Kirbopher logs in both as Zetto and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposely let Kirbopher take Zetto's Breaker Beam in order to continue through the Gemini Tournament as Zetto; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually log himself in as Zetto to confront Alpha and the [[Forbidden Power]]. After a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control, his body badly damaged.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Although Kirbopher does not actively fight the hackers, his accidental encounter with Rockoon has caused the two to have a mutual aversion to each other. However, in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], he seems to be sympathetic towards Rockoon after he witnesses Rockoon's fallout with [[Skeight]]. This may be due to him seeing the kind of trouble that occurs when a person uses two characters at the same time without admitting they are the same person.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Spin Slash''': An aerial cutting attack in which the user spins rapidly into a powerful cut. This technique can be turned into a Shockwave upon finishing.
*'''Ice Knives''': A projectile attack where a swarm of sharp icicles spread out from a slash of the user’s weapon.
*'''Dust Tornado''': A slow, but forceful projectile attack that can entrap the opponent and allows for a swift follow-up combo.
*'''Shockwave''': A powerful attack that travels along the ground and trips up the opponent upon impact.

==Trivia==
*Kirbopher and TOME in general make allusions to the number "11" in some shape or form.
**The release date for [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]] was 11-11-11, and the end of the original About TOME trailer showed Kirbopher running up and slicing the date in half.
**In the original ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Kirbopher was named "Kirbopher15". 15 is 1111 in binary.
**In Episode 10, the time when Alpha arrives at Balanstadium to meet Zetto is 11:11:11.
**Episode 11 shows Kirbopher's player ID is 001-501-111.
*During Episode 11 of ''TV TOME Adventures'', in which [https://kirbopher15.deviantart.com/art/Tsuzuku-14427657 Tsuzuku] (who would become [[Tsuzuku]] in TOME) would repeatedly call Kirbopher15 "Kirbofour15".
**This was also referenced in the [[April Fools Special]] short, in which a spoofed version of Kirbopher15 appears, named Kirbo4.
* His design seems to be loosely inspired by [[w:c:zelda:Link|Link]] from ''[[w:c:zelda:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
*Chris Niosi, along with Alpha's voice actor Blake Swift, sings TOME's first season main theme ("[[Battle On!]]").
*Kirbopher's height is somewhat inconsistent. He is clearly the shortest of the others, but in some scenes, he stands more than a foot shorter than his friends, and in other shots he is almost as tall as Alpha or Flamegirl.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in Episode 10 and Plan Z, clues were dropped throughout The Gemini Tournament arc and Episode 10 to indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person.
**Both Zetto and Kirbopher were interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher stood immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
**With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
** Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines are both, "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say, "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!"
**As Webmaster stated at the end of Episode 10, players who left the game without logging off remained in the game with their eyes turned grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after losing to Alpha after being controlled by the Forbidden Power, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Another clue exclusive to the "Kirbopher" account is in Episode 7 he hears Demon Alpha's scream and panics a bit, also telling Archy to get lost, implying that he already knows about the Forbidden Power.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor, although this was not revealed until Episode 10.
**Also, in Episode 1, during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.

'''Kirbopher''', sometimes shortened to "Kirb," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Swordsman]] class with an Enchanted Sword. He is later revealed to be an alternate character account of [[Zetto]], created solely for the fun of the game. Cynical and short-tempered, his character is based on that of the series creator, who shares the same username. Many people mispronounce his name, whether it be in joke or misunderstanding. As of the final episode of season 2, it's implied that 'Kirbopher' is no longer in use.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
[[File:Kirb.jpg|thumb|left|185px|Kirb preparing to battle Alpha]]
Kirbopher first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|episode 1]], looking down from a cliff as [[Alpha]] logs in. He challenges him to a battle and promptly loses. Kirbopher and Alpha then meet up with the rest of the gang, who are gearing up to go fight a [[Rockoon|couple o]][[Doubling|f hackers]] that have been terrorizing Lavendera.
Kirbopher refuses to join them, as he wants to play "the fun freakin' part of the game." He heads off into the woods to fight a few players, but ends up getting ganged up on. He fortunately runs into [[Flamegirl]] and Alpha, who reluctantly help him fend off the attackers before leaving to fight the hackers. Kirbopher appears at the end of the episode, slashing Rockoon in half as he attempts an escape. When Alpha doesn't notice his entrance, he goes berserk and initiates a battle.
[[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]] begins with Kirb logging into the game, looking for a round of late-night battles in ;Lavendera. He then runs into [[Sniperwheel]], who is ready for one last battle before logging off for the day. Kirbopher narrowly defeats him, and is about to challenge him to another match, when he sees [[Gamecrazed]] leaving the crowd.
He promptly follows him. Along the way, Nylocke joins him, and together they follow Gamecrazed to a mysterious mansion that is supposed to be off-limits. Gamecrazed enters the mansion, with the duo following him. Eventually, they lose track of him and run into [[Asterob]], who is working on completing the Mansion's graphics before it opens. Suddenly, all three of them are attacked by [[Splat]], who incapacitates Nylocke and Kirbopher before demanding Asterob's shield.
Gamecrazed appears and defends Asterob, ultimately defeating Splat. After exiting the mansion, Gamecrazed asks Nylocke and Kirbopher why they were following him. Kirbopher explains that they know almost nothing about Gamecrazed, but admits that following him probably was a dumb idea and he forgives him.
Kirbopher reappears in [[Fraggedquest|episode 4]], joining the rest of the gang on a quest to build and defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol]]. Kirbopher is chosen to find the idol's head at the edge of ;Lavendera, which he reluctantly agrees to do. He quickly finds it, but runs into Rockoon on his way back, who is not too happy about the outcome of their previous encounter. He steals the idol's head and runs off, but accidentally trips and breaks part of its ear. Kirbopher loses him, but does find the head and hurries back to the others, who have found their pieces. They assemble the idol, noting that part of its ear seems to be missing, and then wait in ;Lavendera for the moon to rise.
During the interim, the group discusses hanging out in real life, with Kirbopher being as cynical about the whole idea as ever. When the moon rises, the Shadow Guard Idol comes to life, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the monster, bonding with it and knocking Alpha out of the arena. Kirbopher and the gang's attacks have no effect until Alpha reappears and reunites the piece of the ear with Rockoon, making him vulnerable. Kirbopher uses his wind powers to help defeat Rockoon, before threatening to chop him into pieces again. Rockoon flees, and Kirbopher complains about the lack of reward for completing a hacked quest.
In [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]], Kirbopher first appears training with the others for the Gemini Tournament. He initiates a training round with Alpha, giving him pointers on how to fight with the most energy. When [[Flamegirl]] compliments Alpha on his technique, Kirbopher starts to argue with her about Alpha's friendship, insulting her, angering Alpha, and causing much discomfort for the rest of the group. Suddenly, [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]] appears and knocks Kirbopher away, before using her Sonic Screech ability to bring out the [[Forbidden Power]] inside Alpha. When Alpha turns into his demon form and destroys Tigerlilly, Kirbopher thinks that Alpha is ready for a fight and challenges him. Although they fight evenly for a good while, Kirbopher tells Alpha to show him "the real deal," and Alpha responds by attacking Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power, severely injuring him and defeating him. He is not seen for the rest of the episode.
Kirbopher reappears briefly in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], talking to Gamecrazed in ;Mechcity. When Nylocke arrives, he shows surprise at seeing Kirbopher back in the game, as he had been gone for two days. Kirbopher asks Nylocke to give him some advice. He had wanted to ask Alpha to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament, but after what he said in episode 5, he isn't sure how Alpha will react to him. Nylocke freezes, as this serious question is not something he wants to experience while playing the game. He dodges around the question, giving a vague answer about choosing the right path in friendship.
Kirbopher sighs and says he should probably just wait to talk with Alpha and Flamegirl, and Nylocke enthusiastically agrees with him. Kirbopher then asks if Nylocke would be his partner, but Nylocke also nervously dodges that question and tells Kirbopher to continue training until his "destined brother-in-arms" reveals himself. Disappointed, Kirbopher logs off, saying that he might stay away from the game for a little while longer.
Kirbopher finally logs back in [[Infectuation|Episode 7]], where he is determined to finally talk with Flamegirl and Alpha about the incident in episode 5. Unfortunately, he gets held up by [[Archy]], a rabid fan who has been following Kirbopher. Although Kirbopher repeatedly shuns him, Archy keeps attempting to ask Kirbopher to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament.
These interruptions prevent Kirbopher from getting to Alpha before he is possessed, and thus he shows up just as Flamegirl uses the anti-virus to stabilize Alpha. Misreading the situation, he meets up with them later outside the Balanstadium gates in ;Mechcity, just after Alpha and Flamegirl sign up as a team for the Gemini Tournament. Internally crushed, Kirbopher laughs it off and states that it's better this way, as he can now defeat Alpha in front of the entire world. As he dejectedly walks away, Archy reappears, and Kirbopher grudgingly accepts him as his partner.
Not getting Alpha as his partner has drastically upset his plans, so during the Gemini Tournament, Kirbopher acts much more serious and surly than normal.
In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], Kirbopher faces [[Skeight]] and Rockoon (under the guise of "Raccoon") in the first round. Archy is quickly defeated, and Rockoon disposes of Skeight at his earliest chance. Leaving the two of them alone, Rockoon attempts to defeat Kirbopher with his aptly-named "Kirb Stomp," but is impaled on Kirbopher's sword, leaving Kirbopher the victor.
When he sees Alpha and Flamegirl win their next round, he states that he is "not having a good time," but does not elaborate on what is irking him. Alpha tries to talk to him and warn him about Zetto, but Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's just wasting his time and that he's going to end this as soon as possible. In his next match, against Zetto and [[Kizuna]], he simply walks into the arena and raises his arms, allowing Zetto to destroy him instantly. He is not seen for the rest of the tournament.
Kirbopher appears briefly during the credits sequence of [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], sitting in ;Lavendera with a grieved look on his face.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Kirbopher first appears in the forest of ;Lavendera with Gamecrazed, gearing himself up to try and repair his relationship with Alpha and Flamegirl. When they do arrive, he congratulates them on their performance in the tournament, but before he can try to ask for their friendship, a large group of players assaults them, aiming for Alpha. Although the group is defeated, Alpha begins to lament that he is sick and tired of the Forbidden Power and just wants to be rid of it forever. With a guilty look, Kirbopher slips away and heads to the ;Mechcity docks, where he disconnects from the game and logs into TOME's moon as Zetto. This was the official revelation that Kirbopher is, in fact, an alternate account for Zetto. Kirbopher only reappears as himself at the end of the episode, standing in front of the crater in the Balanstadium where Zetto had been defeated, with a tired look on his face. Gamecrazed is there with him, telling him, "It's over."
===Season 2===
Kirbopher returns in [[Year One|Episode 11]], back to his usual cynical self. He is first seen walking towards ;Sanctuary from ;Mechcity, when he is challenged by Alpha. Victorious as usual, Alpha invites him to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher does indeed show up, and is present, along with Nylocke, when Gamecrazed is selected for the Challenge of the Netkings quest.
When Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join Gamecrazed's team, Kirbopher nearly refuses, but then caves in when the rest of the group insists that he join the team, "just like old times," as Alpha puts it. He then joins the gang the next day at the Netking statues, where he and the other four are taken up to HOME. He isn't fazed by the somewhat unexpected look of the first room and encourages the others to get going.
When [[Execk]] appears, Kirbopher taunts him, causing Execk to freeze him in a block of ice. Flamegirl thaws him out only after Alpha defeats Execk, stating he "needed the time out." Alpha says that Kirbopher helped him by revealing some of Execk's powers before the match, to which Kirbopher replies that he completely meant to do that. When a portal appears to the next room, Kirbopher follows Nylocke, telling him to slow down. In the next room, a large crystal cavern, Alpha says that something feels different about this area, but Kirbopher counters that it's probably just the Netking putting on a show. A giant crystal then rises out of the ground and shatters, revealing what appears to be Zetto, which absolutely shocks Kirbopher.
[[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] picks up right where Episode 11 left off. "Zetto" begins bragging in a very over-the-top, dramatic way, before revealing himself to be [[Rubirules]] in disguise. Kirbopher is incredibly weirded out by the experience, and almost starts the fight with Rubirules. Nylocke takes his place instead, saying that Rubirules' appearance as Zetto has made the battle personal. Nylocke eventually defeats Rubirules, and the group heads into the next area through another portal.
This area seems to be a temple in the clouds, and Kirbopher once again reminds the gang that the area design means nothing. [[Kindarspirit]] then appears and greets the group using her system voice. Kirbopher tells her that she doesn't need to be in character around them and that they know it's just a game. With that said, Kindarspirit reverts to her true personality and goes crazy over how cute Kirbopher is, grabbing him and hugging him. She then traps him in a cloud and sends him up to the ceiling. Flamegirl offers to "save" Kirbopher and defeats Kindarspirit. Kirbopher is freed, now very angry at his lack of battles, and the group proceeds to the next area. Before fighting the next Netking, the group discusses what their prize should be if they win.
Alpha suggests that they should set up some sort of meet-and-greet with the creators, and Kirbopher surprisingly agrees to the idea. [[Bitshrum]] then appears and challenges one of them to topple him from his throne. As Gamecrazed will fight the last Netking, Kirbopher must fight Bitshrum. Kirbopher is none too happy that he has to fight "the mushroom guy," and this is only made worse as Nylocke begins describing the glorious battle between a squire and a king. At this, Kirbopher loses his cool and charges Bitshrum, screaming that he's not a squire and he's not an imp. He carves through Bitshrum's box powers and defeats him, Super Mario Bros. style. From atop the throne, Kirbopher screams that he is the greatest player in TOME, better than any of the Netkings. After a bit of coaxing, he hops down from the throne. When the next portal opens, Nylocke allows Kirbopher to go before him, calling him "Your Majesty." Webmaster appears on the other side, and after a fierce battle, Gamecrazed defeats him.
After the group is congratulated by the Netkings, Zetto and Kizuna are revealed to be former Netkings themselves. Kirbopher notices that Alpha starts getting worked up when this is mentioned and tries to stop him before he says anything. Alpha ignores him and asks the Netkings about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Kirbopher states that the group isn't obligated to keep anything the Netkings say secret. The Netkings refuse to reveal anything when they see the Power approaching HOME and forcefully log the players out.
In Episode 13, Alpha confronts Kirbopher at a park in ;Mechcity to request his help for a mission to infiltrate D-Buggers. Kirbopher states that he's not going and snaps at Alpha, telling him he needs to stop trying to play the hero and just play the game for what it is. Alpha says he has to do this, in which Kirb remarks that he's crazy. They both part ways afterward and Kirb isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
In [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto logs back in as Kirb after being defeated by the malfunctioning Dragon Bug, having left him still in the game. He talks if he can't stop the Dragon Bug while in his current form, he adds that he at least tried to destroy the Forbidden Power, [[Kajet]]. Kirb calls the monster's attention before he attacks. Kirb puts up a good fight against the virus, but his sword is soon absorbed into the dragon and he begins to get crushed in its fist. When the Dragon Bug arrives from the moon, Kajet flings Kirb's damaged model into Sanctuary, where Alpha finds him unstable and unconscious.
==Personality==
Kirbopher aims to enjoy himself in TOME, choosing not to get involved in 'drama' that he considers pointless. He's shown to be very hyperactive, short-tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied by his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10. Though he's snarky and sarcastic towards his friends, and can get annoyed with them sometimes (especially Nylocke), he is shown to care deeply about them, and has a sensitive side that he seems to prefer not to show.
Throughout the series, he is shown to have a tendency of taking his anger/frustrations out on other people. From Episode 1, he decides to defeat Rockoon, despite the other already running away, out of frustration that the hacker isn't following his (Zetto's) orders.
It's also implied that Kirbopher has issues controlling his jealousy. In Episode 5, he's clearly envious of the newfound attention that Alpha receives following his defeat of the hackers, responding poorly to the compliments Flamegirl gives the other. He is also jealous of the attention that Alpha gives her. In the fact bubble for Episode 5, it's stated that he is "very attached" to Alpha as a friend<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlbwGkbWLg</ref>, and within the episode, he insults Flamegirl her by calling her a cougar, seemingly implying that he wants her to back off of the other.
As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, offering up the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. Though he probably does wish could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in [[Plan Z|Short #7]] that the 'Kirbopher' account was created to as an escape from his search for the Forbidden Power, and to enjoy TOME for how it should've been, just hanging out with his friends.
He has a tendency to talk to himself.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
[[File:Kirb_with_friends.jpg|thumb|left|188px|Kirbopher challenges Alpha to another match.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Kirbopher and Alpha are very good friends, and seem to have known each other for quite a while. Kirbopher sees Alpha as a friendly rival to test his skills against, though sometimes he gets jealous of the amount of attention Alpha gets. In the latter half of season 1, however, they become rather distant from each other ever since Alpha unintentionally hurt him with the Forbidden Power in episode 5. After an argument with Flamegirl, Kirbopher feels bad for how he acted and wants to apologize. In Infectuation, Alpha is relieved that Kirbopher is all right, but Kirbopher gets upset when Alpha says that Flamegirl is his partner for the Gemini Tournament as he thought his plan would've gone smoother. Later on in the season, he seem to be even more distant from the group because of the circumstances with the Forbidden Power.<br /><br />Fortunately, by the events of the second season, Alpha has moved on from the Gemini Tournament conflicts, and insists that Kirbopher join the group on the Challenge of the Netkings quest. Things are back to normal until Episode 13, where Kirb and Alpha's conflicting goals and views cause them to separate once again.
[[File:Kirb_with_nylocke.jpg|thumb|right|188px|Kirb with Nylocke in the mansion.]]
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Although Nylocke and Kirbopher tend to get along with each other pretty well, Nylocke is the one who Kirbopher shows aggravation at the most out of anyone else. However, when Kirbopher is feeling upset in episode 6, he immediately goes to Nylocke for help, even though Nylocke is unable to give him a straight answer. Kirbopher even considered asking Nylocke to be his partner if his plan didn't turn out as he hoped.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': Kirbopher and Flamegirl are good friends but before he seemed to generally dislike Flamegirl. There are times where he insults her about her feelings for Alpha, and because of that they often get into fights and arguments with each other. They disagree on several things, such as whether or not their time in TOME should be spent fighting hackers instead of playing the game like normal. In season 2 however, their relationship has gotten better but they still tease each other in a more playful manner.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Due to his quiet nature, Gamecrazed has not had much interaction with Kirbopher. In episode 2, Kirbopher and Nylocke attempt to tail Gamecrazed in order to learn more about him. The attempt is foiled, however, when Splat attacks the mansion. Gamecrazed was also the first person Kirbopher talks to after his fallout with Alpha and Flamegirl, and it is hinted that Gamecrazed may be privy to Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]].
*'''[[Archy]]''': Kirbopher tolerates Archy at best and outright insults him at worst. Although not stated, it is implied that Archy has been following him for quite some time, causing Kirbopher to become rather annoyed when he appears. Archy becomes his Gemini partner only because Kirbopher's other choices (Alpha and Nylocke) were taken.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher is an alternative account of Zetto. It was through Kirbopher that Zetto was able to monitor Alpha's condition. There are several occasions where Kirbopher logs in both as Zetto and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposely let Kirbopher take Zetto's Breaker Beam in order to continue through the Gemini Tournament as Zetto; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually log himself in as Zetto to confront Alpha and the [[Forbidden Power]]. After a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control, his body badly damaged.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Although Kirbopher does not actively fight the hackers, his accidental encounter with Rockoon has caused the two to have a mutual aversion to each other. However, in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], he seems to be sympathetic towards Rockoon after he witnesses Rockoon's fallout with [[Skeight]]. This may be due to him seeing the kind of trouble that occurs when a person uses two characters at the same time without admitting they are the same person.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Spin Slash''': An aerial cutting attack in which the user spins rapidly into a powerful cut. This technique can be turned into a Shockwave upon finishing.
*'''Ice Knives''': A projectile attack where a swarm of sharp icicles spread out from a slash of the user’s weapon.
*'''Dust Tornado''': A slow, but forceful projectile attack that can entrap the opponent and allows for a swift follow-up combo.
*'''Shockwave''': A powerful attack that travels along the ground and trips up the opponent upon impact.

==Trivia==
*Kirbopher and TOME in general make allusions to the number "11" in some shape or form.
**The release date for [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]] was 11-11-11, and the end of the original About TOME trailer showed Kirbopher running up and slicing the date in half.
**In the original ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Kirbopher was named "Kirbopher15". 15 is 1111 in binary.
**In Episode 10, the time when Alpha arrives at Balanstadium to meet Zetto is 11:11:11.
**Episode 11 shows Kirbopher's player ID is 001-501-111.
*During Episode 11 of ''TV TOME Adventures'', in which [https://kirbopher15.deviantart.com/art/Tsuzuku-14427657 Tsuzuku] (who would become [[Tsuzuku]] in TOME) would repeatedly call Kirbopher15 "Kirbofour15".
**This was also referenced in the [[April Fools Special]] short, in which a spoofed version of Kirbopher15 appears, named Kirbo4.
* His design seems to be loosely inspired by [[w:c:zelda:Link|Link]] from ''[[w:c:zelda:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
*Chris Niosi, along with Alpha's voice actor Blake Swift, sings TOME's first season main theme ("[[Battle On!]]").
*Kirbopher's height is somewhat inconsistent. He is clearly the shortest of the others, but in some scenes, he stands more than a foot shorter than his friends, and in other shots he is almost as tall as Alpha or Flamegirl.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in Episode 10 and Plan Z, clues were dropped throughout The Gemini Tournament arc and Episode 10 to indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person.
**Both Zetto and Kirbopher were interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher stood immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
**With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
** Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines are both, "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say, "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!"
**As Webmaster stated at the end of Episode 10, players who left the game without logging off remained in the game with their eyes turned grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after losing to Alpha after being controlled by the Forbidden Power, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Another clue exclusive to the "Kirbopher" account is in Episode 7 he hears Demon Alpha's scream and panics a bit, also telling Archy to get lost, implying that he already knows about the Forbidden Power.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor, although this was not revealed until Episode 10.
**Also, in Episode 1, during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[TOME (Series)|TOME]]. He is the [[Fighter]] class, and has abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[Episode 1]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in Episode 15 to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the Forbidden Power, and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in Episode 15, his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with Kirbopher, while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One|Episode 11]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the Netkings or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In Episode 14, Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by Tigerlily, under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in <nowiki>;Mechcity</nowiki>, which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During Episode 7, a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype Ravenfreak had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, Nylocke hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword (Drain Edge equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Forbidden Power|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[Episode 10]] to [[Episode 15]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Episode 15]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Forbidden Power|Demon]] [[Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One|Episode 11]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in AvZ.

== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's best friend Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[TOME (Series)|TOME]]. He is the [[Fighter]] class, and has abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[Episode 1]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in Episode 15 to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the Forbidden Power, and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in Episode 15, his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with Kirbopher, while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One|Episode 11]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the Netkings or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In Episode 14, Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.

'''Flamegirl''', sometimes called "Flamey" (born Stephanie Basco), is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in TOME, a [[Spellcaster]] with the power of fire. Unbeknownst to her, the antivirus program - or "Purple Flame" - to cure the Forbidden Power had been attached to her character model in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]], which was the power source of the Dragon Bug. This made her the only person able to stop the Power's influence on [[Alpha]], and later put her in risk of brain death when the Purple Flame was used by [[Rubirules]] to try and control SOFDTI.
==Biography==
Before the events of TOME, Flamegirl was partners with the user of [[Neomutant]] in programming at their high school. She got mad at the heavy amount of secrecy and thus left Neomutant behind.
===Season 1===
Flamegirl first appears in [[You Gotta Virus]] where she is talking to Gamecrazed and awaits the arrival of the rest of her friends. Alpha and [[Kirbopher]] finally arrive and they all begin to discuss plans on how they'll deal with the hackers who keep ravaging TOME.
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.
She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the [[Forbidden Power]] took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Her apparent love interest, the two are quite close. She is impressed by the sheer power and confidence Alpha exerts while using the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Kirbopher]]''': The two seem to be close friends, but due to both being close to Alpha, they also appear to have a rivalry for his friendship, they often get into fights and arguments and seem to disagree a lot about things.
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Flamegirl knows more about Nylocke's true personality than any of the others, due to the fact that she was online when he logged on drunk one day.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': The two have not interacted very much.
*'''[[Saturndiva]]''' & '''[[Whyti]]''': They are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of [[Mechcity]].
===Enemies===
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Like the rest of her group, she often fights hackers together with her friends.
*'''[[Neomutant]]''': Though Flamegirl has dismissed him several times, and regards him as a stalker with clear distain, Neomutant still pursues her affection, going as far as to join TOME as a hacker to protect her from Alpha.
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Flamegirl, along with Alpha, approached her age-old Hacker enemy towards the end of [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]]. This was when she first saw the Forbidden Power within Alpha.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Flame Bullet''': A rapid projectile attack that allows the user to shoot small blasts of fire from their fingers.
*'''Rocket Burn''': A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. This move can also be turned into a spinning attack.
*'''Angry Burst''': A short-range but forceful attack made of concentrated flames.
*'''Sun Bomb''': A chargable projectile attack that moves slowly but causes a greater explosion upon impact.
*'''The Anti-Virus''': A purple flame that acts as a vaccine against the Forbidden Power, which she unknowningly obtained from [[Ravenfreak]] in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]].
==Trivia==
* Flamegirl's ID number is 008-974-659.

'''Flamegirl''', sometimes called "Flamey" (born Stephanie Basco), is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in TOME, a [[Spellcaster]] with the power of fire. Unbeknownst to her, the antivirus program - or "Purple Flame" - to cure the Forbidden Power had been attached to her character model in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]], which was the power source of the Dragon Bug. This made her the only person able to stop the Power's influence on [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], and later put her in risk of brain death when the Purple Flame was used by [[Rubirules]] to try and control SOFDTI.
==Biography==
Before the events of TOME, Flamegirl was partners with the user of [[Neomutant]] in programming at their high school. She got mad at the heavy amount of secrecy and thus left Neomutant behind.
===Season 1===
Flamegirl first appears in [[You Gotta Virus]] where she is talking to Gamecrazed and awaits the arrival of the rest of her friends. Alpha and [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] finally arrive and they all begin to discuss plans on how they'll deal with the hackers who keep ravaging TOME.
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.
She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the [[Forbidden Power]] took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Her apparent love interest, the two are quite close. She is impressed by the sheer power and confidence Alpha exerts while using the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': The two seem to be close friends, but due to both being close to Alpha, they also appear to have a rivalry for his friendship, they often get into fights and arguments and seem to disagree a lot about things.
*'''[[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]''': Flamegirl knows more about Nylocke's true personality than any of the others, due to the fact that she was online when he logged on drunk one day.
*'''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': The two have not interacted very much.
*'''[[Saturndiva]]''' & '''[[Whyti]]''': They are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of [[Mechcity]].
===Enemies===
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Like the rest of her group, she often fights hackers together with her friends.
*'''[[Neomutant]]''': Though Flamegirl has dismissed him several times, and regards him as a stalker with clear distain, Neomutant still pursues her affection, going as far as to join TOME as a hacker to protect her from Alpha.

'''Nylocke''', sometimes called "'''Nye'''", is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], a [[Swordsman]] with the power of ice. He is notable as a skilled fighter but also as a role player, who acts as the character his model pictures and almost never breaks this facade, regardless of the current situation. On very few occasions - usually, when he is shaken or feels the need, to be honest with someone - his true personality has broken through. His character model was created by [[Rubirules]] as a prize to the 1,111,111th player to dissimulate the code for the head of the [[Dragon Bug]].
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Nylocke is a role-player, a player who likes to pretend and act like the character that they play as. He has the habit of giving himself special titles; he will jump into the air and shout "Nylocke!" followed by a title relevant to the situation that generally begins with "Master of..." or "Dragon of...". He is good natured, extremely extroverted and very friendly towards any player he meets, going so far as to help complete strangers, such as [[Elescope]] and [[Hyprelynx]]. He is an old friend of [[Gamecrazed]], who was possibly the first user Nylocke met in TOME, and serves as a kind of older brother to [[Flamegirl]]. He tends to call male players "Sir (username)" and female players "Lady (username)," but notably, Nylocke frequently refers to [[Kirbopher]] as "squire" instead. He also frequently pronounces Kirbopher's name incorrectly, though he never means to annoy and eventually comes to correct himself later.
When he is faced with a battle, Nylocke usually acts focused and eager to test his abilities with sportsmanship, and views his opponents as fellow colleagues to have fun with, rather then competitors. When it comes to hackers, however, he displays a strong sense of furious justice, often referring to them as "vile" or "criminals."
In [[Dragon Drama]], it is also revealed that his real life is rough and being in character on TOME is one of the only times he really enjoys himself, which is why he rarely breaks character and prefers to block out anything that doesn't correspond to his idea of fun. This is the first of only a few times in the show that Nylocke breaks character, symbolized by black, reptilian pupils appearing in his eyes.
It is implied that Nylocke has attracted quite a following within the game's community itself due to his over-the-top performance, to the point that several players have deep ties to him. These include [[Serpentine]], a roleplayer who considers himself Nylocke's eternal rival after initially being rejected by him, and [[Demonking]], who was dissuaded from his job as a hacker through Nylocke's persuasion before eventually becoming a roleplayer himself. [[Whyti]] and Hyprelynx seem to admire Nylocke as well, imitating his famous "WHOOSH!" when dashing into a situation.
== Biography ==
===Season 1===
Nylocke first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode]], announcing his entrance to [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Flamegirl]] who have been waiting for him. After [[Alpha]] and [[Kirbopher]] show up at the scene, Nylocke states that he will be heading off to combat the hackers again, and wants to see who will join him. Kirbopher declines, as per usual, and Alpha says he will think about it since there are a few hours before the fighters are going to meet up. After a final warning to Alpha not to be tempted by Flamegirl's "womanly wiles," Nylocke sets off to round up the remaining players who are going to fight. Upon arrival, the players are ambushed by [[Rockoon]] and [[Doubling]] who destroy everyone except Gamecrazed and Nye. Just as they rush in to start fighting, Alpha and Flamegirl arrive, surrounding the hackers. Alpha uses the Forbidden Power to injure the hackers and defeat them. Nylocke lauds Alpha for his brave fighting spirit.
In [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]], Nylocke sneaks up on Kirbopher, who has been tailing Gamecrazed through ;Lavendera. Nylocke admits that he, too, is very curious about Gamecrazed and will follow him as well. Upon reaching the Mansion, Nylocke shows some hesitation upon entering it but follows Kirbopher who rushes in first. The two eventually lose Gamecrazed within the Mansion's walls but stumble upon [[Asterob]], who demands that they leave, as the Mansion is not supposed to be seen by the public yet. In the middle of their conversation, [[Splat]] appears and traps Kirbopher and Nylocke in bubbles of goo and sends them up to the ceiling. Nylocke remains in this position throughout the subsequent quarrel between Splat and Gamecrazed, showing some perverted interest in the way the two fighters wrap around each other. Splat is eventually defeated, and Asterob gives the [[Drain Edge]] to Gamecrazed before pleading for the three to leave. Upon exiting, Nye and Kirb admit that following Gamecrazed to know more about him was probably the wrong idea, but Gamecrazed forgives them both and apologizes for not being more open with them.
Nylocke appears again in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]], viewing Alpha and [[Granda]]'s fight together. He admires Granda's enthusiasm but encourages her to go out and train more, much to her tantrum-filled chagrin. Alpha then receives a message from Flamegirl, asking him and Nye to meet her in ;Mechcity. The two agree and head off to meet her. On the way, Alpha tries to ask Nylocke for some relationship advice, but Nylocke remains his stalwart, Dragon Knight self. Upon arriving, Nylocke notices an explosion as [[Demonking]] begins attacking the city and immediately heads off to defend against him. He teams up with [[Whyti]], and together they use their ice powers to try and defeat him. Soon enough, Demonking asks them to stop fighting and admits that he just needs the money to go back to school. Nylocke admonishes him for using such destructive ways to get another chance at higher learning and offers him a chance to change his ways and become an upstanding player of TOME. Demonking reluctantly accepts and the two become friends. They then arrive at an alleyway just in time to see Alpha and Flamegirl almost having a moment, which they awkwardly interrupt.
Nylocke and company appear in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], preparing to head off on the group quest that they have accepted. Nylocke shows delight at seeing Gamecrazed join them, and recounts how impressed he was at seeing Flamegirl roleplay for the first time. After the details of the quest are recounted to the group, Nylocke and Flamegirl agree to go off in search of the "trial by fire" mentioned by the quest-giver. They arrive at a tree surrounded by five campfires, each representing one of the elements needed to defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol|Shadow Guard Beast]]. Before Nylocke can start to figure out the puzzle, he is tackled by Granda, still sore about her earlier battles. She beats Nylocke mercilessly and stalks off, all while Flamegirl solves the puzzle without so much as a glance at Nylocke's predicament.
Nylocke horrendously violated dragon with split ends, joins Flamegirl, and the two head back to the meeting spot, the idol's torso in hand. Once the others return, the group finds a convenient spot to wait for the moonlight to strike the idol. During this time, the group discusses having a group get-together. It is here where Flamegirl reveals that Nylocke is from England, mentioning that he once logged on drunk and accidentally mentioned his hometown of Knutsford, and Nylocke's comments hint that he may have been recovering from some sort of break-up. However, he declines to join them as he "cannot travel across the virtual plains to Californialand." The idol suddenly activates, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the beast, knocking Alpha out of the arena. The other four desperately try to defeat the boss, with no success until Alpha breaks into the battlegrid using the Forbidden Power. He reunites the beast with a piece of its ear, rendering it vulnerable. The group then uses their combined elemental powers to finish it off. Rockoon flees in the aftermath, and Nylocke celebrates the group's victory with a heartfelt embrace.
===Season 2===
==Abilities==
*'''Cold Steel: '''The user slashes their weapon to send out waves of sharp ice.
*'''Stalagmite Storm: '''The user summons a line of giant stalagmites that rise up from the ground and pierce the opponent's defenses.
*'''White Wind: '''A blizzard attack that pushes back the enemy and freezes them in solid ice when covering them for a certain amount of time.
*'''[[Drain Edge]]:''' An item attached to Nylocke's sword, capable of absorbing enemy attack to be later unleashed in a form of attack. It can be discharged partially for a minor shockwave or can be discharged fully to release a powerful beam. The capacity of the Drain Edge is considerably massive, as seen in [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], where the Drain Edge is capable of absorbing [[Zetto]]'s overcharged Breaker Beam; and in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], where the Drain Edge is shown to be capable of absorbing the entirety of the [[Forbidden Power]]. As of Episode 10, Nylocke tossed his Drain Edge away in hopes of disposing of the Forbidden Power and thus does not possess this item anymore.
==Trivia==
* Unlike the rest of the main cast, Nylocke's real name was never revealed.
* Nylocke's sword is called "Hoarfrost."<ref>https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=987879094605528&set=a.987878677938903</ref>
*Nylocke's ID number is 001-111-111.
**In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], his player number is incorrectly written as "111,111,111th player." His actual ID number was referenced many times in later episodes to correct this mistake.
*In an online poll hosted by Chris Niosi, Nylocke was voted as the character most liked by fans of the show.
*Nylocke was the final owner of the [[Drain Edge]], gaining it from Gamecrazed in Episode 6 before throwing it away at the end of Episode 10.
*Nylocke is likely one of the strongest players in TOME, as he only lost the Gemini Tournament by forfeiting to his [[Zetto|defeated opponent]].
*Nylocke is left-handed.
*Nylocke is tied with Kirbopher for most episode appearances, at 14 out of 15.
**Nylocke also appears in the most shorts, at 4 out of 7. In addition, two shorts, [[Nylocke's Day Off]] and [[The Legend of Nylocke]], are focused almost exclusively on him.
*The ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'' version of Nylocke, named Nailock, was voiced by his real-life inspiration, Colin "NailockGameSlave" Zabielski. He cameoed as the voice of Nylocke in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Nylocke's name comes from a corruption of his original voice actor's name. "Colin," spelled backwards, is "Niloc."
*According to Chris Niosi, the "Muscular Beaver" persona of Daggett Beaver from the Nickelodeon series, ''"The Angry Beavers''", was an influence on Nylocke's web series iteration, even using the characters' known battle cry "WHOOSH!"<ref>https://twitter.com/Kirbopher/status/595081216971317248</ref>

'''Gamecrazed''' ('''Gamesoft''' in the RPG adaptation), often referred to as "GC," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Morphological]] class with the power of shadow. He is a very quiet character, avoiding conversation whenever possible. He is closest to Nylocke out of all the other main characters. It was revealed in the season 2 finale that GC was the "shadow" of [[SOFDTI]], the artificial intelligence that TOME ran on. His screen name was actually the password to the door which protects the room in which SOFDTI sleeps deep within TOME.
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Gamecrazed generally appears as a very quiet, collected, and polite individual. A few times, characters have also described him as nice. He tends to stick with himself and often replies with a simple "hm" when spoken to in a conversation.
Whenever meeting in public is brought up between the gang, he usually tries to change the topic and usually appears uncomfortable with it. Since GC is revealed to be the "shadow" of SOFDTI in episode 15, he knows he can't meet them in real life and thus won't talk about meeting them in real life.
==Biography==
=== Season 1 ===
=== Season 2 ===
== Abilities ==
* '''Shadow Slash:''' A cutting attack, made from a slice of concentrated dark energy.
* '''Dark Bomb:''' Concentrated dark energy formed into an explosive ball that can be shot from the user's palm.
* '''Black Hand:''' The user temporarily transforms into a giant hand to perform more powerful physical attacks.
* '''Violet Thorn:''' The user wraps themselves around an enemy and squeezes, creating a flower-like pattern of spikes that protrude outward. This technique may risk damage to the user.
==Gallery==
==Trivia==
*Gamecrazed's ID number is 001-234-567. Strangely enough, in ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', his ID number is different. [[SOFDTI]], being the core of the game, likely chose this number when she created her character because she had seven parents, and probably manipulated the lottery in [[Year One|Episode 11]] so that her friends could meet them.
*Gamecrazed was the first owner of the [[Drain Edge]], which was given to him by [[Asterob]] in [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]]. He later gave the Drain Edge to Nylocke in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], who subsequently used it to seal away the [[Forbidden Power]] during the events of [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]].
*Gamecrazed's shoulder pads have the letters L and R, supposedly meaning "left" and "right". However, the right pad is on his left shoulder and the left pad is on his right shoulder, probably due to the fact that his body is mimicking a game system, where the users right is the systems left.
*By Nylocke's admission in Episode 12, Gamecrazed is stronger than all the other main characters, and may well be the best player of TOME. This is likely because Gamecrazed is the avatar of the game's core.
*Gamecrazed has never been shown logging in or out via the walls of TOME's world. Whenever he leaves, he usually just vanishes into the ground. A notable exception, however, is when the Netkings forcibly log the group out from HOME in [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] with a logout beam (although it is likely that Gamecrazed simply escaped back to the game's core before the beam was fired).
*Since the introduction of SOFDTI, several events hinted that Gamecrazed and SOFDTI were the same entity before the connection was officially confirmed during the events of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]].
**Both characters struggle with having relationships with other people and have to learn what friendship means.
**The two have similar designs: SOFDTI is pink while GC is purple, both have protrusions from their backs (although SOFDTI's are wings), both have similar face shapes, both have a rounded object on their forehead (SOFDTI's is an eye), and both have slime-like arms. Also, Gamecrazed's body type is notably feminine.
**In [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]], Gamecrazed knew exactly where the Mansion was and that there were plans to raid it that night. SOFDTI, as the game's program, would have knowledge of new constructions in the game. He/She was also able to easily render the hole that Splat left in the wall with no apparent use of tools or programs.
**Starting in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], Gamecrazed states that he "just can't" meet with the others outside of the game, and always becomes uncomfortable when the subject is brought up. SOFDTI, being the game's program, cannot possibly meet the players outside of the game.
**When the Forbidden Power possesses Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], Gamecrazed immediately recognizes the danger and tells the others to getaway. He is equally surprised when he finds that [[Zetto]] has defeated Alpha. SOFDTI, as the Power's creator, would know the full extent of its power.
**In Episode 06, even before Episode 10, it is hinted at that Gamecrazed is aware of Kirbopher's alter ego, as Kirbopher tells GC he needs advice on "approaching the others about-" before he is cut off by Nylocke. From the recent events of Episode 05, it can be easily assumed that he is asking for advice on making up with Alpha and Flamegirl, however, he could also be speaking about revealing to them his true identity. Throughout the same episode, Gamecrazed is constantly showing that he knows everyone's emotions, although he does say (although he could be lying) he is unaware of what Flamegirl or Alpha thinks about Kirbopher's earlier actions. When fighting Tigerlilly/Kizuna (whom he has known since she joined the Netkings), he tells her to "Just try and kill me. You'll find it... impossible." It is known (by Zetto telling Alpha in Episode 10) that the Forbidden Power cannot be deleted; and programs cannot be "killed" anyway. This loans more indications that the Forbidden Power being destroyed would harm SOFDTI as well, or vice versa. In this case, Gamecrazed would really be telling Kizuna that she can never destroy her or the Forbidden Power.
**Episode 10 reveals that Gamecrazed knows of Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]]. SOFDTI, having interacted with Zetto in the past, could know this.
**Gamecrazed refuses to go with the others on the infiltration mission in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]]. Nylocke is visibly shocked when he hears why. SOFDTI may have known that something might happen to her if the Forbidden Power is destroyed, or if the hackers get a hold of her power.
***Gamecrazed's explanation to Nylocke isn't heard, and it's never specified anywhere in the series.
**Gamecrazed and SOFDTI share the same voice actor, Casey Mongillo.
*The ''TV TOME Adventures'' version of Gamecrazed was voiced by Gregory Prytyka Jr. He made a cameo as the voice of Gamecrazed in the [[April Fools Special]].
*In episode 15, the password to SOFDTI's part of the world is GAMECRAZED.
*Despite speculations, Niosi confirmed that "Ryan" is not Gamesoft's deadname and that she kept the name as is after her transition, influenced by many of Niosi's LGBTQ+ friends who've done the same. This explains why Crashr always addressed her under that name and was a brief puzzled yet welcoming to refer to her as his sister.
*Gamesoft's IRL name "Ryan" may have been inspired by the deadname of the titular character from the webcomic ''Rain'' by Jocelyn Samara DiDomenick. The Chapter 4 scene where CrashR was confused when Softy was referred to as his "sister" may have also been a homage to one of the comics' issues from December 2012.<ref>http://rain.thecomicseries.com/comics/293/</ref>

*Gamecrazed's shoulder pads have the letters L and R, supposedly meaning "left" and "right". However, the right pad is on his left shoulder and the left pad is on his right shoulder, probably due to the fact that his body is mimicking a game system, where the users right is the systems left.
*By Nylocke's admission in Episode 12, Gamecrazed is stronger than all the other main characters, and may well be the best player of TOME. This is likely because Gamecrazed is the avatar of the game's core.
*Gamecrazed has never been shown logging in or out via the walls of TOME's world. Whenever he leaves, he usually just vanishes into the ground. A notable exception, however, is when the Netkings forcibly log the group out from HOME in [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] with a logout beam (although it is likely that Gamecrazed simply escaped back to the game's core before the beam was fired).
*Since the introduction of SOFDTI, several events hinted that Gamecrazed and SOFDTI were the same entity before the connection was officially confirmed during the events of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]].
**Both characters struggle with having relationships with other people and have to learn what friendship means.
**The two have similar designs: SOFDTI is pink while GC is purple, both have protrusions from their backs (although SOFDTI's are wings), both have similar face shapes, both have a rounded object on their forehead (SOFDTI's is an eye), and both have slime-like arms. Also, Gamecrazed's body type is notably feminine.
**In [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]], Gamecrazed knew exactly where the Mansion was and that there were plans to raid it that night. SOFDTI, as the game's program, would have knowledge of new constructions in the game. He/She was also able to easily render the hole that Splat left in the wall with no apparent use of tools or programs.
**Starting in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], Gamecrazed states that he "just can't" meet with the others outside of the game, and always becomes uncomfortable when the subject is brought up. SOFDTI, being the game's program, cannot possibly meet the players outside of the game.
**When the Forbidden Power possesses Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], Gamecrazed immediately recognizes the danger and tells the others to getaway. He is equally surprised when he finds that [[Zetto]] has defeated Alpha. SOFDTI, as the Power's creator, would know the full extent of its power.
**In Episode 06, even before Episode 10, it is hinted at that Gamecrazed is aware of Kirbopher's alter ego, as Kirbopher tells GC he needs advice on "approaching the others about-" before he is cut off by Nylocke. From the recent events of Episode 05, it can be easily assumed that he is asking for advice on making up with Alpha and Flamegirl, however, he could also be speaking about revealing to them his true identity. Throughout the same episode, Gamecrazed is constantly showing that he knows everyone's emotions, although he does say (although he could be lying) he is unaware of what Flamegirl or Alpha thinks about Kirbopher's earlier actions. When fighting Tigerlilly/Kizuna (whom he has known since she joined the Netkings), he tells her to "Just try and kill me. You'll find it... impossible." It is known (by Zetto telling Alpha in Episode 10) that the Forbidden Power cannot be deleted; and programs cannot be "killed" anyway. This loans more indications that the Forbidden Power being destroyed would harm SOFDTI as well, or vice versa. In this case, Gamecrazed would really be telling Kizuna that she can never destroy her or the Forbidden Power.
**Episode 10 reveals that Gamecrazed knows of Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]]. SOFDTI, having interacted with Zetto in the past, could know this.
**Gamecrazed refuses to go with the others on the infiltration mission in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]]. Nylocke is visibly shocked when he hears why. SOFDTI may have known that something might happen to her if the Forbidden Power is destroyed, or if the hackers get a hold of her power.
***Gamecrazed's explanation to Nylocke isn't heard, and it's never specified anywhere in the series.
**Gamecrazed and SOFDTI share the same voice actor, Casey Mongillo.
*The ''TV TOME Adventures'' version of Gamecrazed was voiced by Gregory Prytyka Jr. He made a cameo as the voice of Gamecrazed in the [[April Fools Special]].
*In episode 15, the password to SOFDTI's part of the world is GAMECRAZED.
*Despite speculations, Niosi confirmed that "Ryan" is not Gamesoft's deadname and that she kept the name as is after her transition, influenced by many of Niosi's LGBTQ+ friends who've done the same.

'''Gamecrazed''', often referred to as "GC," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]]. He is [[Morphological]] class with the power of shadow. He is a very quiet character, avoiding conversation whenever possible. He is closest to Nylocke out of all the other main characters. It was revealed in the season 2 finale that GC was the "shadow" of [[SOFDTI]], the artificial intelligence that TOME ran on. His screen name was actually the password to the door which protects the room in which SOFDTI sleeps deep within TOME.
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Gamecrazed generally appears as a very quiet, collected, and polite individual. A few times, characters have also described him as nice. He tends to stick with himself and often replies with a simple "hm" when spoken to in a conversation.
Whenever meeting in public is brought up between the gang, he usually tries to change the topic and usually appears uncomfortable with it. Since GC is revealed to be the "shadow" of SOFDTI in episode 15, he knows he can't meet them in real life and thus won't talk about meeting them in real life.

* '''Violet Thorn:''' The user wraps themselves around an enemy and squeezes, creating a flower-like pattern of spikes that protrude outward. This technique may risk damage to the user.

==Trivia==
*Gamecrazed's ID number is 001-234-567. Strangely enough, in ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', his ID number is different. [[SOFDTI]], being the core of the game, likely chose this number when she created her character because she had seven parents, and probably manipulated the lottery in [[Year One|Episode 11]] so that her friends could meet them.
*Gamecrazed was the first owner of the [[Drain Edge]], which was given to him by [[Asterob]] in [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]]. He later gave the Drain Edge to Nylocke in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], who subsequently used it to seal away the [[Forbidden Power]] during the events of [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]].

*By Nylocke's admission in Episode 12, Gamecrazed is stronger than all the other main characters, and may well be the best player of TOME. This is likely because Gamecrazed is the avatar of the game's core.
*Gamecrazed has never been shown logging in or out via the walls of TOME's world. Whenever he leaves, he usually just vanishes into the ground.

'''Kizuna''' (born '''Lily'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>, known as '''Tigerlily''' or '''The Karmic Blossom''' in the RPG adaption) is a major character in TOME. Kizuna was formerly Netking Number 7, who was responsible for bug-testing the game, but after the [[Episode 0|original incident]] with the [[Forbidden Power]], she and her partner, [[Zetto]], split off from the Netkings. She acts as the administrator of D-Buggers.org, disguising herself under her alternate armored form, Tigerlilly. She is an [[Animalistic]] character with the power of sharpshooting.
==Appearance==
[[File:Tome kizuna.png|150px|thumb|left]]Kizuna has three different forms. Her standard form is humanoid, with long red-brown hair in a large low ponytail and a multipurpose pistol. Her season 1 design features a navy poncho and skirt, a light grey bodysuit underneath, and matching light grey arm gloves and knee-high boots. She also wears a brown belt with a pistol holster. Her season 2 design is similar, but has a redder palette overall; the navy poncho and skirt are absent from her design, and her light grey bodysuit is instead dark red.
Her second "legal" form is a small red cat; in season 1, her cat form dons a green collar with a golden bell and a matching tail band, while in season 2, both turn gold. Her third form is a hacked version of her "Beast Armor" ability, named Tigerlilly. This form is a quadrupedal mechanical beast with large claws, 4 green eyes, and some cat-like qualities, such as small triangular ears. It is noticeably larger than other players.
== Personality ==
Kizuna has little character development over the series, but she is shown to be able to focus intently on one task without letting other things distract her. For example, her participation in the Gemini Tournament with Zetto was nothing more to her than a favor, since it was just part of the plan to get the Forbidden Power. This can lead her to be curt and narrow-minded at times, as she sees her goals as the most important at any moment in time. While she is patient, having to wait several weeks to let certain schemes play out, she gets frustrated easily when something goes awry.
Based on her behavior in Episode 15, it can be concluded that Kizuna's cold and detached attitude stems from her desire to keep Zetto safe, and her insecurities around having her feelings exposed. She gets increasingly upset when she says that SOFDTI could very easily release another virus that could hurt Zetto or cause him to go crazy trying to get rid of it, showing a more emotional and paranoid side of her that wishes to protect the one she cares about.
In Episode 00 (File: 00), it was revealed that Kizuna's personality used to be far more easygoing and lighthearted. After SOFDTI openly revealed her feelings for Zetto, she closed herself off and became irritable and frustrated, with her negative feelings only growing stronger after the incident with the Shadowguard Beast.
==Biography==
=== Season 1 ===
Although Kizuna's first appearance as herself was in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|episode 8]], her first technical appearance was in [[Mansion Midnight]], as D-Buggers.org. This is her only "character" appearance until the Gemini Tournament begins. As D-Buggers.org, Kizuna gives the six hackers different jobs to work towards capturing the Forbidden Power. Her first appearance in her cat form is in [[Highest Form of Flattery|episode 3]], walking past The Platform while [[Saturndiva]] and [[Whyti]] are chatting with [[Flamegirl]] about [[Alpha]].
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC.png|thumb]]
She then appears as Tigerlilly for the first time in [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]] while the main cast are training for the Gemini Tournament in ;Lavendera. Using her Sonic Screech, Tigerlilly riles up the Forbidden Power inside of Alpha, causing him to lose control. Demon Alpha attacks Tigerlilly; however, Kizuna disconnects from the game right before she's defeated, likely to avoid the pain the Forbidden Power would cause.
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC2.png|thumb]]Tigerlilly appears again in [[Dragon Drama|episode 6]], after [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Nylocke]] have successfully reunited [[Hyprelynx]] and [[Elescope]] in ;Mechcity. Tigerlilly leaps from the Moon and attacks the party, nearly defeating them, but she is defeated by Gamecrazed when he uses the [[Drain Edge]] to absorb her attacks. It is unknown why Tigerlilly appears in this episode, but it's most likely that she was attempting to steal the Drain Edge from Gamecrazed, planning to use it to seal the Forbidden Power away.
In episode 8, Kizuna appears in human form for the first time, acting as Zetto's partner for the Gemini Tournament. She has a casual demeanor throughout the tournament, easily defeating opponents and telling Zetto that the whole thing isn't a big deal for her. After taking out the [[Tsuzuku|Twin]] [[Shogun|Blades]], [[Kirbopher]], and Alpha and Flamegirl, Kizuna and Zetto reach the final round against Gamecrazed and Nylocke. The battle is very close, with both sides virtually matched, but Nylocke and Gamecrazed forfeit in order to make a point about fun. At the end of the episode, Kizuna is seen at the trophy ceremony, holding her side of the trophy with a frustrated look on her face.
=== Season 2 ===
[[File:KizunaCatSeason2.png|thumb]][[File:VirusHunt.png|thumb]]Kizuna reappears in [[Year One|Episode 11]] with a redder palette overall. She first appears in her cat form, overlooking the main cast as they take care of [[Odboll]] and complain to the moderators of ;Sanctuary. After that, she teleports to the Moon, where she has set up a monitor overlooking ;Sanctuary to search for the Forbidden Power after its disappearance in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. Zetto appears as well, and the two argue over how TOME isn't just a game, and that the Forbidden Power is a real threat. Kizuna believes it should be captured as a tool, but Zetto is fully convinced that the Forbidden Power must be destroyed. Later in the Episode, Kizuna can be seen in the Moon again, frustrated that she cannot find the Forbidden Power.
Kizuna appears again at the end of [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], once again in the Moon. Zetto arrives to tell her that the Netkings will be making their move the next day. When he asks her what to do, Kizuna tells him that she has to make some important calls.
The next time she appears is at the end of [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], where she is giving instructions to Odboll.
In [[Episode 0]], Kizuna appears with a different design that has aspects of both her season 1 design and season 2 design; her color scheme is the same as her season 1 design, but her hair is more like her season 2 design. Instead of her typical handgun, she wields a wooden staff. She is seen messing around with Zetto, teasing him playfully, when [[SOFDTI]] comments that they both have strong feelings for each other. Kizuna has an outburst at this, insulting SOFDTI and asking her to stay out of her head. She is there again when Zetto fights against the [[Kajet]], with [[Webmaster]] telling her to spot for bugs. She jokingly taunts Zetto, who sighs in response. When he attempts to fight Kajet, she notices the Forbidden Power entering it, and tries to stop Zetto from fighting it.
Her next appearance is in [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], where she is discussing with Zetto about whether or not they can pull off their plan. She guarantees that this is their only chance to strike, and that whatever the [[Netkings]] are going to try will not work. She says that they are almost ready to launch before heading down to make sure things run smoothly. When Alpha and [[Neomutant]] enter the hacker base, she attacks them as Tigerlilly. She manages to defeat Neomutant, but Alpha breaks her armor, and she flees in cat form. Later on, she drops down from the ceiling while Alpha and Flamegirl are talking, putting her handgun to Alpha's head. When the [[Dragon Bug]] activates and Flamegirl glows pink, she remarks that it 'isn't supposed to happen,' which Zetto affirms. She is shocked when Flamegirl is absorbed into the Dragon Bug, and watches as Zetto tries to shut it down, questioning what he is doing.
[[File:ThreateningSOFDTI.png|thumb]][[File:BreakingTigerlilly.png|thumb]]In Episode 15, Kizuna joins the group, woefully remarking that the Dragon Bug and Forbidden Power must have cancelled each other out. She helps in hunting down [[Rubirules]], and it's revealed that she's known he was behind it all, like Zetto. She is the first to pursue him, asking Zetto if he's coming with her. The two of them make it underground, but she is removed from the battle after she turns into Tigerlilly and her armor is broken by Rubirules. After his defeat by Alpha, Kizuna gets back up and attempts to kill SOFDTI. She says that SOFDTI will just read her mind again, and how she is a pest that needs to be destroyed. She says she is mad at her because she, due to creating the virus, almost took Zetto away from her. She tries to get SOFDTI to say her feelings for Zetto, but Zetto shoots her in the back to protect SOFDTI. Shocked, she looks back at him, before she is defeated.

'''Kizuna''' (born '''Lily'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>) is a major character in TOME. Kizuna was formerly Netking Number 7, who was responsible for bug-testing the game, but after the [[Episode 0|original incident]] with the [[Forbidden Power]], she and her partner, [[Zetto]], split off from the Netkings. She acts as the administrator of D-Buggers.org, disguising herself under her alternate armored form, Tigerlilly. She is an [[Animalistic]] character with the power of sharpshooting.
==Appearance==
[[File:Tome kizuna.png|150px|thumb|left]]Kizuna has three different forms. Her standard form is humanoid, with long red-brown hair in a large low ponytail and a multipurpose pistol. Her season 1 design features a navy poncho and skirt, a light grey bodysuit underneath, and matching light grey arm gloves and knee-high boots. She also wears a brown belt with a pistol holster. Her season 2 design is similar, but has a redder palette overall; the navy poncho and skirt are absent from her design, and her light grey bodysuit is instead dark red.
Her second "legal" form is a small red cat; in season 1, her cat form dons a green collar with a golden bell and a matching tail band, while in season 2, both turn gold. Her third form is a hacked version of her "Beast Armor" ability, named Tigerlilly. This form is a quadrupedal mechanical beast with large claws, 4 green eyes, and some cat-like qualities, such as small triangular ears. It is noticeably larger than other players.
== Personality ==
Kizuna has little character development over the series, but she is shown to be able to focus intently on one task without letting other things distract her. For example, her participation in the Gemini Tournament with Zetto was nothing more to her than a favor, since it was just part of the plan to get the Forbidden Power. This can lead her to be curt and narrow-minded at times, as she sees her goals as the most important at any moment in time. While she is patient, having to wait several weeks to let certain schemes play out, she gets frustrated easily when something goes awry.
Based on her behavior in Episode 15, it can be concluded that Kizuna's cold and detached attitude stems from her desire to keep Zetto safe, and her insecurities around having her feelings exposed. She gets increasingly upset when she says that SOFDTI could very easily release another virus that could hurt Zetto or cause him to go crazy trying to get rid of it, showing a more emotional and paranoid side of her that wishes to protect the one she cares about.
In Episode 00 (File: 00), it was revealed that Kizuna's personality used to be far more easygoing and lighthearted. After SOFDTI openly revealed her feelings for Zetto, she closed herself off and became irritable and frustrated, with her negative feelings only growing stronger after the incident with the Shadowguard Beast.
==Biography==
=== Season 1 ===
Although Kizuna's first appearance as herself was in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|episode 8]], her first technical appearance was in [[Mansion Midnight]], as D-Buggers.org. This is her only "character" appearance until the Gemini Tournament begins. As D-Buggers.org, Kizuna gives the six hackers different jobs to work towards capturing the Forbidden Power. Her first appearance in her cat form is in [[Highest Form of Flattery|episode 3]], walking past The Platform while [[Saturndiva]] and [[Whyti]] are chatting with [[Flamegirl]] about [[Alpha]].
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC.png|thumb]]
She then appears as Tigerlilly for the first time in [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]] while the main cast are training for the Gemini Tournament in ;Lavendera. Using her Sonic Screech, Tigerlilly riles up the Forbidden Power inside of Alpha, causing him to lose control. Demon Alpha attacks Tigerlilly; however, Kizuna disconnects from the game right before she's defeated, likely to avoid the pain the Forbidden Power would cause.
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC2.png|thumb]]Tigerlilly appears again in [[Dragon Drama|episode 6]], after [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Nylocke]] have successfully reunited [[Hyprelynx]] and [[Elescope]] in ;Mechcity. Tigerlilly leaps from the Moon and attacks the party, nearly defeating them, but she is defeated by Gamecrazed when he uses the [[Drain Edge]] to absorb her attacks. It is unknown why Tigerlilly appears in this episode, but it's most likely that she was attempting to steal the Drain Edge from Gamecrazed, planning to use it to seal the Forbidden Power away.
In episode 8, Kizuna appears in human form for the first time, acting as Zetto's partner for the Gemini Tournament. She has a casual demeanor throughout the tournament, easily defeating opponents and telling Zetto that the whole thing isn't a big deal for her. After taking out the [[Tsuzuku|Twin]] [[Shogun|Blades]], [[Kirbopher]], and Alpha and Flamegirl, Kizuna and Zetto reach the final round against Gamecrazed and Nylocke. The battle is very close, with both sides virtually matched, but Nylocke and Gamecrazed forfeit in order to make a point about fun. At the end of the episode, Kizuna is seen at the trophy ceremony, holding her side of the trophy with a frustrated look on her face.
=== Season 2 ===
[[File:KizunaCatSeason2.png|thumb]][[File:VirusHunt.png|thumb]]Kizuna reappears in [[Year One|Episode 11]] with a redder palette overall. She first appears in her cat form, overlooking the main cast as they take care of [[Odboll]] and complain to the moderators of ;Sanctuary. After that, she teleports to the Moon, where she has set up a monitor overlooking ;Sanctuary to search for the Forbidden Power after its disappearance in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. Zetto appears as well, and the two argue over how TOME isn't just a game, and that the Forbidden Power is a real threat. Kizuna believes it should be captured as a tool, but Zetto is fully convinced that the Forbidden Power must be destroyed. Later in the Episode, Kizuna can be seen in the Moon again, frustrated that she cannot find the Forbidden Power.
Kizuna appears again at the end of [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], once again in the Moon. Zetto arrives to tell her that the Netkings will be making their move the next day. When he asks her what to do, Kizuna tells him that she has to make some important calls.
The next time she appears is at the end of [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], where she is giving instructions to Odboll.
In [[Episode 0]], Kizuna appears with a different design that has aspects of both her season 1 design and season 2 design; her color scheme is the same as her season 1 design, but her hair is more like her season 2 design. Instead of her typical handgun, she wields a wooden staff. She is seen messing around with Zetto, teasing him playfully, when [[SOFDTI]] comments that they both have strong feelings for each other. Kizuna has an outburst at this, insulting SOFDTI and asking her to stay out of her head. She is there again when Zetto fights against the [[Kajet]], with [[Webmaster]] telling her to spot for bugs. She jokingly taunts Zetto, who sighs in response. When he attempts to fight Kajet, she notices the Forbidden Power entering it, and tries to stop Zetto from fighting it.
Her next appearance is in [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], where she is discussing with Zetto about whether or not they can pull off their plan. She guarantees that this is their only chance to strike, and that whatever the [[Netkings]] are going to try will not work. She says that they are almost ready to launch before heading down to make sure things run smoothly. When Alpha and [[Neomutant]] enter the hacker base, she attacks them as Tigerlilly. She manages to defeat Neomutant, but Alpha breaks her armor, and she flees in cat form. Later on, she drops down from the ceiling while Alpha and Flamegirl are talking, putting her handgun to Alpha's head. When the [[Dragon Bug]] activates and Flamegirl glows pink, she remarks that it 'isn't supposed to happen,' which Zetto affirms. She is shocked when Flamegirl is absorbed into the Dragon Bug, and watches as Zetto tries to shut it down, questioning what he is doing.
[[File:ThreateningSOFDTI.png|thumb]][[File:BreakingTigerlilly.png|thumb]]In Episode 15, Kizuna joins the group, woefully remarking that the Dragon Bug and Forbidden Power must have cancelled each other out. She helps in hunting down [[Rubirules]], and it's revealed that she's known he was behind it all, like Zetto. She is the first to pursue him, asking Zetto if he's coming with her. The two of them make it underground, but she is removed from the battle after she turns into Tigerlilly and her armor is broken by Rubirules. After his defeat by Alpha, Kizuna gets back up and attempts to kill SOFDTI. She says that SOFDTI will just read her mind again, and how she is a pest that needs to be destroyed. She says she is mad at her because she, due to creating the virus, almost took Zetto away from her. She tries to get SOFDTI to say her feelings for Zetto, but Zetto shoots her in the back to protect SOFDTI. Shocked, she looks back at him, before she is defeated.

'''Kizuna''' (born '''Lily'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>) is a major character in TOME. Kizuna was formerly Netking Number 7, who was responsible for bug-testing the game, but after the [[Episode 0|original incident]] with the [[Forbidden Power]], she and her partner, [[Zetto]], split off from the Netkings. She acts as the administrator of D-Buggers.org, disguising herself under her alternate armored form, Tigerlilly. She is an [[Animalistic]] character with the power of sharpshooting.
==Appearance==
[[File:Tome kizuna.png|150px|thumb|left]]Kizuna has three different forms. Her standard form is humanoid, with long red-brown hair in a large low ponytail and a multipurpose pistol. Her season 1 design features a navy poncho and skirt, a light grey bodysuit underneath, and matching light grey arm gloves and knee-high boots. She also wears a brown belt with a pistol holster. Her season 2 design is similar, but has a redder palette overall; the navy poncho and skirt are absent from her design, and her light grey bodysuit is instead dark red.
Her second "legal" form is a small red cat; in season 1, her cat form dons a green collar with a golden bell and a matching tail band, while in season 2, both turn gold. Her third form is a hacked version of her "Beast Armor" ability, named Tigerlilly. This form is a quadrupedal mechanical beast with large claws, 4 green eyes, and some cat-like qualities, such as small triangular ears. It is noticeably larger than other players.
== Personality ==
Kizuna has little character development over the series, but she is shown to be able to focus intently on one task without letting other things distract her. For example, her participation in the Gemini Tournament with Zetto was nothing more to her than a favor, since it was just part of the plan to get the Forbidden Power. This can lead her to be curt and narrow-minded at times, as she sees her goals as the most important at any moment in time. While she is patient, having to wait several weeks to let certain schemes play out, she gets frustrated easily when something goes awry.
Based on her behavior in Episode 15, it can be concluded that Kizuna's cold and detached attitude stems from her desire to keep Zetto safe, and her insecurities around having her feelings exposed. She gets increasingly upset when she says that SOFDTI could very easily release another virus that could hurt Zetto or cause him to go crazy trying to get rid of it, showing a more emotional and paranoid side of her that wishes to protect the one she cares about.
In Episode 00 (File: 00), it was revealed that Kizuna's personality used to be far more easygoing and lighthearted. After SOFDTI openly revealed her feelings for Zetto, she closed herself off and became irritable and frustrated, with her negative feelings only growing stronger after the incident with the Shadowguard Beast.
==Biography==
=== Season 1 ===
Although Kizuna's first appearance as herself was in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|episode 8]], her first technical appearance was in [[Mansion Midnight]], as D-Buggers.org. This is her only "character" appearance until the Gemini Tournament begins. As D-Buggers.org, Kizuna gives the six hackers different jobs to work towards capturing the Forbidden Power. Her first appearance in her cat form is in [[Highest Form of Flattery|episode 3]], walking past The Platform while [[Saturndiva]] and [[Whyti]] are chatting with [[Flamegirl]] about [[Alpha]].
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC.png|thumb]]
She then appears as Tigerlilly for the first time in [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]] while the main cast are training for the Gemini Tournament in ;Lavendera. Using her Sonic Screech, Tigerlilly riles up the Forbidden Power inside of Alpha, causing him to lose control. Demon Alpha attacks Tigerlilly; however, Kizuna disconnects from the game right before she's defeated, likely to avoid the pain the Forbidden Power would cause.
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC2.png|thumb]]Tigerlilly appears again in [[Dragon Drama|episode 6]], after [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Nylocke]] have successfully reunited [[Hyprelynx]] and [[Elescope]] in ;Mechcity. Tigerlilly leaps from the Moon and attacks the party, nearly defeating them, but she is defeated by Gamecrazed when he uses the [[Drain Edge]] to absorb her attacks. It is unknown why Tigerlilly appears in this episode, but it's most likely that she was attempting to steal the Drain Edge from Gamecrazed, planning to use it to seal the Forbidden Power away.
In episode 8, Kizuna appears in human form for the first time, acting as Zetto's partner for the Gemini Tournament. She has a casual demeanor throughout the tournament, easily defeating opponents and telling Zetto that the whole thing isn't a big deal for her. After taking out the [[Tsuzuku|Twin]] [[Shogun|Blades]], [[Kirbopher]], and Alpha and Flamegirl, Kizuna and Zetto reach the final round against Gamecrazed and Nylocke. The battle is very close, with both sides virtually matched, but Nylocke and Gamecrazed forfeit in order to make a point about fun. At the end of the episode, Kizuna is seen at the trophy ceremony, holding her side of the trophy with a frustrated look on her face.
=== Season 2 ===
[[File:KizunaCatSeason2.png|thumb]][[File:VirusHunt.png|thumb]]Kizuna reappears in [[Year One|Episode 11]] with a redder palette overall. She first appears in her cat form, overlooking the main cast as they take care of [[Odboll]] and complain to the moderators of ;Sanctuary. After that, she teleports to the Moon, where she has set up a monitor overlooking ;Sanctuary to search for the Forbidden Power after its disappearance in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. Zetto appears as well, and the two argue over how TOME isn't just a game, and that the Forbidden Power is a real threat. Kizuna believes it should be captured as a tool, but Zetto is fully convinced that the Forbidden Power must be destroyed. Later in the Episode, Kizuna can be seen in the Moon again, frustrated that she cannot find the Forbidden Power.
Kizuna appears again at the end of [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], once again in the Moon. Zetto arrives to tell her that the Netkings will be making their move the next day. When he asks her what to do, Kizuna tells him that she has to make some important calls.
The next time she appears is at the end of [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], where she is giving instructions to Odboll.
In [[Episode 0]], Kizuna appears with a different design that has aspects of both her season 1 design and season 2 design; her color scheme is the same as her season 1 design, but her hair is more like her season 2 design. Instead of her typical handgun, she wields a wooden staff. She is seen messing around with Zetto, teasing him playfully, when [[SOFDTI]] comments that they both have strong feelings for each other. Kizuna has an outburst at this, insulting SOFDTI and asking her to stay out of her head. She is there again when Zetto fights against the [[Kajet]], with [[Webmaster]] telling her to spot for bugs. She jokingly taunts Zetto, who sighs in response. When he attempts to fight Kajet, she notices the Forbidden Power entering it, and tries to stop Zetto from fighting it.
Her next appearance is in [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], where she is discussing with Zetto about whether or not they can pull off their plan. She guarantees that this is their only chance to strike, and that whatever the [[Netkings]] are going to try will not work. She says that they are almost ready to launch before heading down to make sure things run smoothly. When Alpha and [[Neomutant]] enter the hacker base, she attacks them as Tigerlilly. She manages to defeat Neomutant, but Alpha breaks her armor, and she flees in cat form. Later on, she drops down from the ceiling while Alpha and Flamegirl are talking, putting her handgun to Alpha's head. When the [[Dragon Bug]] activates and Flamegirl glows pink, she remarks that it 'isn't supposed to happen,' which Zetto affirms. She is shocked when Flamegirl is absorbed into the Dragon Bug, and watches as Zetto tries to shut it down, questioning what he is doing.
[[File:ThreateningSOFDTI.png|thumb]][[File:BreakingTigerlilly.png|thumb]]In Episode 15, Kizuna joins the group, woefully remarking that the Dragon Bug and Forbidden Power must have cancelled each other out. She helps in hunting down [[Rubirules]], and it's revealed that she's known he was behind it all, like Zetto. She is the first to pursue him, asking Zetto if he's coming with her. The two of them make it underground, but she is removed from the battle after she turns into Tigerlilly and her armor is broken by Rubirules. After his defeat by Alpha, Kizuna gets back up and attempts to kill SOFDTI. She says that SOFDTI will just read her mind again, and how she is a pest that needs to be destroyed. She says she is mad at her because she, due to creating the virus, almost took Zetto away from her. She tries to get SOFDTI to say her feelings for Zetto, but Zetto shoots her in the back to protect SOFDTI. Shocked, she looks back at him, before she is defeated.
== Abilities ==
[[File:SonicScreech.png|thumb]]
* '''Golden Bullet:''' Infinite ammo fired from the user's weapon. She is extremely skilled with her handgun and never misses.
* '''Cat-like Reflex:''' An agility-boosting power-up that combines with the user's physical attacks for deadly accuracy.
* '''Beast Armor:''' Creates a temporary metallic shell that slows the user's speed but increases their physical offense and defensive powers. This ability was hacked to last as long as needed for her mission.
* '''Sonic Screech:''' A powerful sound-wave attack that can cover a large area. This technique was hacked to be so loud that it could physically strain any surrounding players that hear it, often used as a distraction.
Kizuna also has the ability to change into a small cat; this is likely another hacked skill.

**It also may be a wordplay on "Bisuna", the Iraqi Arabic word for "cat".

*Kizuna's design in [[Episode 0]] is most likely a callback to the character she is based off in ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Ruri.
*Kizuna, alongside Zetto, are playable characters in the [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo Switch|Nintendo Switch]] game ''[[w:c:combat-core:Combat Core|Combat Core]]'', making them the only two ''Terrain of Magical Expertise'' characters to appear in a non-TOME based video game project.

'''Zetto''' (born '''Zeke'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>) is a main character in the TOME series. Introduced as an arrogant fighter solely seeking strong opponents, he antagonizes [[Alpha]] and his friends, acting cold and objectifying their struggles with the Forbidden Power for his own amusement. It's eventually revealed that he was formerly Netking Number 6, and was responsible for beta testing TOME's battle system during development. After the creation of the Forbidden Power, he and [[Kizuna]] disbanded from the Netkings and went on to form [[D-Buggers.org]] per [[Rubirules]]'s suggestion. He used the hackers Kizuna hired and attacked Alpha himself in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power and eventually contain it.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], [[Kirbopher]] is revealed to be his alternate account.
==Appearance==
==Biography==
===Episode 00: /FILE:ZERO===
Zetto, alongside Kizuna, was the youngest in the team of seven developers hired by publisher [[Plan.Net]] to create TOME. He was mostly a play-tester charged with helping on the game's unique battle system. It was thus his task to test the intended first boss battle of TOME, the Shadowguard Beast.
However, in creating TOME, the Netkings accidentally gave birth to a sentient virtual being known as [[SOFDTI]] who could translate emotions and thoughts, both conscious and unconscious, into data, and helped them bring the game to fruition. SOFDTI was exposed to the whole spectrum of human emotion but could not tolerate its negativity, and spawned a defect that infected the Beast, granting it the power to influence human thoughts and perception and push them to the negative. When launching himself at the beast, Zetto's arm was brutally sliced and he felt the pain of this injury.
After this, the player behind Zetto designed another avatar for himself, called Kirbopher, in order to play the game free of the stress linked to this traumatic event. However, he was soon approached by Rubirules to hunt down the virus SOFDTI has spawned, and his trauma caused him to be easily influenced into joining this quest. Although he was involved in this mission, he let Kizuna physically handle most of it throughout the beginning of the story.
=== Season 1 ===
[[File:Zetto64.png|thumb|Zetto after defeating two random players in Mechcity with a single blast.]]
Zetto is first seen in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], appearing in Mechcity meeting with two Tome users. heires up a Ki-Blast and defeats them both, and takes down Demon Alpha with ease as the latter tries hard to defeat him. Acting impressed by Alpha's power, he asks for a true challenge in the Gemini Tournament, indulging in his revenge over the entity who caused him this unforgettable pain. His meetup plan still aims, however, to secure an occasion to deal with the virus inside Alpha.
He does indeed participate in the tournament alongside Kizuna - after failing to convince Alpha to partner with Kirbopher - who accepts this as a "favor", that should not take her long to complete anyway. Though he intends for it to allow him to "decompress" after the Forbidden Power's influence over Alpha has worsened and his relationships with close friends under the alias of Kirbopher have strained, his plan to contain the Power within Asterob's shield fails, and killing Neomutant and Dustbunny isn't enough for him to calm down.
During the semifinals, Zetto is disappointed in Alpha's lack of will to fight him as hard as he desires. To encourage him to brighten up, Alpha and [[Flamegirl]] decide to forfeit the match ; however, during his final battle against [[Nylocke]] and [[Gamecrazed]], Zetto finally lashes out against the former, which elicits from him a speech much in the same spirit as Alpha's words, before he decides to forfeit that match as well. With the Gemini Tournament over and won by him, Zetto understands that his attempts to run away from his mission are fruitless, and decides to go to the point, dropping his cocky persona.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto messages and confronts Alpha in an attempt to extract the Forbidden Power from him and get rid of it once and for all. When Alpha meets him, he briefs him about the fact that the virus may not be erased, but merely contained ; his poor choice of words awakens Demon Alpha once more. Grabbing Alpha by the neck, he drains the Power out of him, but fails to complete the process, and his arm gets destroyed, the Power leaking into him instead, transforming him into Demon Zetto. He fights with Alpha for a period of time, and during his last few seconds of stable mind as Zetto, he says "Kill...me..." before proceeding to knock Alpha down and finish him off.
Before he can make the final blow, Flamegirl kicks him in the back of the head,triggering the purple flame response, as Nylocke pierces him with his sword with the [[Drain Edge]] attached. The Forbidden Power, weakened by the antivirus and taken aback, is drained from him, causing him to collapse. After everyone has left, the Webmaster of TOME arrives and carries Zetto's body to the Heavens of Magical Expertise, in which he states that Zetto was very badly damaged. [[Kinderspirit]] points out that Zetto's eyes are grayed out, and that he must have unhooked himself from the game without logging out first. [[Webmaster]] comments "I wonder why...?" before the camera switches to Kirbopher looking at the crater Zetto's body was in, a gloomy expression on his face
===Season 2===
[[File:Zetto_season_2.png|thumb|Zetto's appearance in season 2.]]
Zetto reappears briefly in [[Year One|Episode 11]], conversing with [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]]. It is unknown what happened after he was taken to HOME, but sometime before the episode he updated his character model, giving him purple clothing, a metal breastplate, and a much larger mechanical arm on his left hand, replacing the one that was destroyed during [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. His personality has changed radically, as, even though he still tells Kizuna that cares just as much about playing the game as protecting the people in it, he acts noticeably less cocky and self-assured, and comes across as more secluded and focused than before.
In [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], a little while after Rubirules mockingly impersonates him, in part to offend Kirbopher, in front of the party of Challenge of the Netkings fighters, Zetto's identity as a Netking and battle system tester is revealed. Knowing that he was part of the Netkings, Alpha understand that the Netkings are undoubtedly aware the Forbidden Power exists, and angrily demands them explanations, only for Kajet's awakening to interrupt their meetup. At the end of the episode and after Alpha's gang is logged out forcefully by [[Webmaster]], Zetto appears in the Moon, informing Kizuna that the Netkings will be making their move on the Forbidden Power the next day. When he asks Kizuna what the plan is, she states that they are "officially out of time", and that she needs to make some "very important calls", which are to Rubirules, Neomutant and Oddball, to orchestrate a plan for the Dragon Bug pieces to come to the Moon for immediate construction.
In [[Episode 0]], Zetto's past with Kajet is explored. He and Kizuna are seen playing around with each other, Zetto lacking his signature gun arm. [[SOFDTI]] mentions that they have strong feelings for each other, which causes Kizuna to have an outburst which Zetto tries to calm her down from. This is SOFDTI's first exposure to strong negative feelings. Later, he is seen fighting against Kajet, however due to the Forbidden Power, his arm gets cut off and he is prematurely logged out due to the pain.
During [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto doubts the necessity of his and Kizuna's actions, while Kizuna affirms this is their only chance. When Nylocke is delivered to him, he turns him into the Dragon Bug head, saying that they just need to activate the power source. He also turns Flamegirl into the power source, before revealing himself to Alpha. He explains that their objective is to erase the Forbidden Power permanently and tells him he should have stayed out of this while he had the chance - as his coming to the moon was unnecessary, which he tried to warn him about while on Kirbopher's account - and that they can't be stopped now. However, when Flamegirl is turned into the power source, she contorts and groans, unlike Nylocke's instantaneous shift, which makes Zetto understand things are not going as planned. He tries to shut Dragon Bug down, but it fails. He shoots at it with his arm cannon, but the dragon defeats him and he is logged out on this account.
In Episode 15, after his attempt to combat Kajet with Kirbopher leaves the latter permanently damaged, he logs back into TOME using his administration privileges, coincidentally right next to where Alpha fell from the moon, reflecting on the time Rubirules recruited him. A moment later, Alpha stares at him, and realizes in a flash of lucidity who he really is. Lashing out at him, he angrily asks him why he "did it", to which Zetto tears up and tries to make Alpha understand he "just wanted to help everybody" and that "he let it get out of hand". Immediately after, the Dragon Bug and Kajet kill each other. Zetto, Kizuna and Alpha get closer to the battlefield only to see that the two are nothing but meaningless data anymore. He tries and fails to justify himself, only to see Rubirules fall from the sky and encase the Forbidden Power and Purple Flame.
As Rubirules finally lets everyone in on his actual intent - use the Power to control SOFDTI, rather than erase it - Zetto tries to stop him by saying that Flamegirl is not responding at all, and could possibly have brain damage. Rubirules, as part of Neomutant's plan, does not believe him; therefore, Zetto chooses to jump down and follow him to redeem his bad deeds, though he openly confesses to Kizuna, who follows him alongside Alpha, that he doesn't have a plan.
His words fail to convince Rubirules once more. After Kizuna is knocked out by him, he attempts to use his improved mechanical arm to absorb the Forbidden Power. Raw as it is in Rubirules's crystal, it only causes him immense pain, and he has to reluctantly agree to Alpha coming into contact with Kajet's spirit for the last time
Alpha eventually defeats Rubirules, but as SOFDTI contemplates how his love allowed for the Forbidden Power to be erased after all, KIzuna points her gun at her, angrily blaming her for everything that has happened to her and Zetto. She openly confesses her love for him as she says SOFDTI "could have taken him away" from her. Zetto, fully aware that she is wrong, decides to kick her out of the game by shooting her.
In the aftermath of Rubirules' defeat, Zetto adresses Webmaster for a wish he and his friends had for winning the Challenge of the Netkings. After burying Kirbopher in the forest of ;Lavendera, Zetto's player meets up with Alpha's, Nylocke's, and Flamegirl's, in Burbank, California, the latter's hometown.
==Personality==
Because of his involvement in the game's development as the combat tester, Zetto takes the fighting aspect of TOME very seriously, challenging practically every player he meets to a battle. His character was made with the inner workings of the battle system in mind, and utilizes his powers to a greater extent than most other players. He is, understandably, very confident in his combat capabilities because of this, and defeats nearly all of his opponents with ease. His obsession with battle can become one of the more negative aspects of his personality, though, and he can struggle to find any enjoyment in the game unless he is winning or his competition is serious. In Episode 12, Nylocke realizes that Zetto's outburst at the Gemini Tournament in [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]] was probably caused by Nylocke's light-hearted attitude towards a world that Zetto spent months creating.
In Season 2, his personality is noticeably different, with his cool, confident facade seemingly slipping following the events of Episode 10. He is even more determined than before. However, his fragility is greater. With the crisis ramping up in intensity, he grows more and more aware of the possibility of failure, and feels very powerless in the face of danger. He seems to be on his way to resolve his trauma with the defeat of Kajet.
Zetto is shown to have good intentions overall; from the start, he regrets hiring Rockoon and Doubling after they destroy ;Lavendera, and unlike Rubirules, he has no wish to utilize the Forbidden Power for anything, simply wanting to destroy it. These good intentions are hard to piece together, though, because Zetto's player takes a theatrical liking to his power and happily plays the part of a fearsome anti-hero for our protagonists. While focused on his mission, he takes every opportunity to enjoy himself in ways that, at best, leave him angry and unsatisfied, and at worst, slow down his progress. Furthermore, his trauma regarding the Forbidden Power seems to get in the way of his judgement; while he wants to prevent anyone else from being hurt by the virus, he himself puts his friends in harm's way in order to destroy it. When Alpha questions why he did so in Episode 15, he can't really give a satisfactory answer, stating that he "just wanted to help everyone" and repeatedly apologizing. It's clear that he cares deeply for other people, but his emotions get the best of him. They are deeply conflicted, and as Plan Z reveals, he feels guilty and cowardly for not revealing his identity to his friends, but he still decides to keep his personas separate anyways, likely because he believes it will aid his mission in the end.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher was an alternate account of Zetto, designed first and foremost to distance himself from the horror of the Forbidden Power. As things turned out, however, Kirbopher ended up meeting Alpha, whose body became the host of the virus, and so it was through this account that Zetto had to watch its evolution unfold, slowly destroying any opportunity he had to enjoy the game for what it was. There are several occasions where Zetto logs in both as Kirbopher and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposedly let Kirbopher takes his Breaker Beam in order to continue through the gemini tournament; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually logs himself as Zetto to confront Alpha and his [[Forbidden Power]], after a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control. Zetto continues to use Kirbopher afterwards until he attempts to take down Kajet with him in Episode 14, which results in irreversible corruption of the model.
*'''[[Kizuna|Kizuna]]''': Zetto and Kizuna are long-time acquaintances and reluctant lovers. Their relationship has been described by Niosi as "all kinds of messed up", as the two of them are people who deal with their feelings very poorly. They are the driving force of [[D-Buggers.org]] and carry out the construction of the [[Dragon Bug]], scheduling Hacker missions to further it. At the end of the first season, they battle alongside each other in the Gemini Tournament, defeating all of their competitors with little difficulty while acting rather sarcastically towards each other, eventually reaching the finals, where they face off against Nylocke and Gamecrazed. They are victorious in this battle, only because Nylocke forfeits. It is strongly hinted at in [[Episode 0]] that Zetto did, or still does, have feelings for her. However, when Kizuna breaks down in front of [[SOFDTI]] in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] and attempts to destroy her out or sheer rage for the tragedies they have experienced, Zetto silently shoots her to force her out of the game, to which she tears up, having finally expressed open love for him to the AI. Kizuna does not appear in the real-life meetup of Zetto and his friends, and the future of their bond is unknown.
===Enemies===
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha vs Demon Zetto.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Zetto first battles Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], when the latter is terrorizing [[Mechcity]] under the influence of the Forbidden Power. Despite defeating Alpha, Zetto acts impressed by his abilities in combat, challenging him to fight in the Gemini Tournament, despite knowing full well his power is a threat to eliminate. When they finally face each other in the tournament, Zetto and Kizuna win the battle by default when Alpha and Flamegirl forfeit, simply in light of how little fun Zetto has. In The Warring Demons, Zetto confronts Alpha about the Forbidden Power and when Alpha is possessed by it once again, Zetto vows to get rid of it once and for all. He continues to hide his identity to Alpha until he realizes it himself in Episode 15. Due to the urgency of the situation, Zetto chooses to redeem himself by teaming up with Alpha and Kizuna to take down Rubirules.
==Abilities==
*'''Ki Generator''': Infinite spirit energy that the player can charge and release in explosive bursts.
*'''Ki Blade''': A blade made of energy that can morph and extend to different shapes by the user's will.
*'''Shiftarm''': A transforming arm that can shift between a cannon, a chain-link and a machine gun.
**'''The Anti-Virus Prototype''': The earlier version of Flamegirl's Anti-Virus installed in Zetto's Shiftarm, which also acts as a counter-measure against the [[Forbidden Power]]. Alhough it cannot defeat the virus, it can protect Zetto from its attacks.
*'''Breaker Beam''': A powerful attack that must be charged for a great amount of time, but releases a beam that covers the entire length of the battlefield. He can unleash an intentionally overcharged beam, but it will short-circuit his mechanical arm for a period of time.

==Trivia==
*Zetto is featured on the cover of the Smooth Jazz version of "[[Battle On!]]", which [[Kirbopher]]'s voice actor sings, possibly an allusion to their sharing identities.
*Before the reveal in [[Episode 0]] about Zetto's history with the [[Forbidden Power]], there were various clues left throughout the ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]'' series.
**Before [[Alpha]] transforms in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto says, "It's taken longer than I wanted...but I finally have the means to extract it...and contain it. ''This time...for good!''" implying that he's tried to contain it before and failed.
** He also says, "Do you hear me in there, you monster?! ''I haven't forgotten... and I'll make sure you never hurt ANYONE ELSE!''" implying the Forbidden Power did something to him in the past.
**[[File:QuickFlashbackZetto.png|thumb|The flashback image of Zetto during The Warring Demons.]]Moments before Zetto attempts to extract the Forbidden Power from Alpha, Zetto is seen from Alpha's point of view. The screen rapidly flickers between the current Zetto and his character model from before Kajet cut off his arm.
** The Forbidden Power says through Alpha's head, "I want him to suffer all over again".
**Episode 12 strongly hints that Zetto had a large role in developing or testing the Forbidden Power before it was hidden away.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] and [[Plan Z]], clues were dropped throughout the Gemini Tournament arc and the beginning of the episode that indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person. Reasons include:
**Both being interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher standing immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
** With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
**Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines were both "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!". This line is the one that allows Alpha to piece his identity together
**As the [[Webmaster]] stated at the end of Episode 10, players who leave the game without logging off remain in the game, with their character model's eyes turning grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after being stabbed by Nylocke, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor; this was hidden to the public by a pseudonym until Episode 10.
**In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.
**Zetto's old character design is similar to Kirbopher's 3rd character design. The version of Kirbopher that appears in ''TOME'' is the 4th character design.
*Zetto is the Japanese name for the letter Z, the last letter of the [[wikipedia:Latin alphabet|Latin alphabet]]. This contrasts with Alpha, whose name is the first letter of the [[wikipedia:Greek alphabet|Greek alphabet]], as the two characters are portrayed as relative opposites.
*Zetto's Breaker Beam attack is derived from ''[[w:c:mario:Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Super Mario RPG]]'', which heavingly influenced the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]] of the series.
*The character Lord Zett, from Chris Niosi's original series ''Super Freakin' Parody Rangers'', is based off of the design for Zetto from the TOME precursor series, ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He is also voiced by Niosi.
* Zetto's design for [[Episode 0]] is most likely a callback to his design in ''TV TOME Adventures''.
* The font that Zetto uses through the series is called "Kinglify".<ref>https://www.tumblr.com/moonlightchronicle/152251904868/whats-the-name-of-the-font-used-for-zetto-on-the</ref>
*Zetto, alongside [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]], are playable characters in the [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo Switch|Nintendo Switch]] game ''[[w:c:combat-core:Combat Core|Combat Core]]'', making them the only two ''Terrain of Magical Expertise'' characters to appear in a non-TOME based video game project. Niosi reprised his role from the original series.
*According to Chris Niosi, [[w:c:dragonball:Vegeta|Vegeta]] from the ''[[w:c:dragonball:Dragon Ball (franchise)|Dragon Ball]]'' franchise was a large influence on Zetto's character design and personality, to the point where the character was very derivative of him in the original ''TV Tome Adventures'' incarnation. Coincidentally, [[wikipedia:Eric Vale|Eric Vale]] (whom voiced Zetto in the RPG) frequently voices Vegeta's son, [[w:c:dragonball:Future Trunks|Trunks]], throughout the English version of the franchise.

'''Zetto''' (born '''Zeke'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>) is a main character in the TOME series. Introduced as an arrogant fighter solely seeking strong opponents, he antagonizes [[Alpha]] and his friends, acting cold and objectifying their struggles with the Forbidden Power for his own amusement. It's eventually revealed that he was formerly Netking Number 6, and was responsible for beta testing TOME's battle system during development. After the creation of the Forbidden Power, he and [[Kizuna]] disbanded from the Netkings and went on to form [[D-Buggers.org]] per [[Rubirules]]'s suggestion. He used the hackers Kizuna hired and attacked Alpha himself in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power and eventually contain it.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], [[Kirbopher]] is revealed to be his alternate account.
==Appearance==
==Biography==
===Episode 00: /FILE:ZERO===
Zetto, alongside Kizuna, was the youngest in the team of seven developers hired by publisher [[Plan.Net]] to create TOME. He was mostly a play-tester charged with helping on the game's unique battle system. It was thus his task to test the intended first boss battle of TOME, the Shadowguard Beast.
However, in creating TOME, the Netkings accidentally gave birth to a sentient virtual being known as [[SOFDTI]] who could translate emotions and thoughts, both conscious and unconscious, into data, and helped them bring the game to fruition. SOFDTI was exposed to the whole spectrum of human emotion but could not tolerate its negativity, and spawned a defect that infected the Beast, granting it the power to influence human thoughts and perception and push them to the negative. When launching himself at the beast, Zetto's arm was brutally sliced and he felt the pain of this injury.
After this, the player behind Zetto designed another avatar for himself, called Kirbopher, in order to play the game free of the stress linked to this traumatic event. However, he was soon approached by Rubirules to hunt down the virus SOFDTI has spawned, and his trauma caused him to be easily influenced into joining this quest. Although he was involved in this mission, he let Kizuna physically handle most of it throughout the beginning of the story.
=== Season 1 ===
[[File:Zetto64.png|thumb|Zetto after defeating two random players in Mechcity with a single blast.]]
Zetto is first seen in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], appearing in Mechcity meeting with two Tome users. heires up a Ki-Blast and defeats them both, and takes down Demon Alpha with ease as the latter tries hard to defeat him. Acting impressed by Alpha's power, he asks for a true challenge in the Gemini Tournament, indulging in his revenge over the entity who caused him this unforgettable pain. His meetup plan still aims, however, to secure an occasion to deal with the virus inside Alpha.
He does indeed participate in the tournament alongside Kizuna - after failing to convince Alpha to partner with Kirbopher - who accepts this as a "favor", that should not take her long to complete anyway. Though he intends for it to allow him to "decompress" after the Forbidden Power's influence over Alpha has worsened and his relationships with close friends under the alias of Kirbopher have strained, his plan to contain the Power within Asterob's shield fails, and killing Neomutant and Dustbunny isn't enough for him to calm down.
During the semifinals, Zetto is disappointed in Alpha's lack of will to fight him as hard as he desires. To encourage him to brighten up, Alpha and [[Flamegirl]] decide to forfeit the match ; however, during his final battle against [[Nylocke]] and [[Gamecrazed]], Zetto finally lashes out against the former, which elicits from him a speech much in the same spirit as Alpha's words, before he decides to forfeit that match as well. With the Gemini Tournament over and won by him, Zetto understands that his attempts to run away from his mission are fruitless, and decides to go to the point, dropping his cocky persona.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto messages and confronts Alpha in an attempt to extract the Forbidden Power from him and get rid of it once and for all. When Alpha meets him, he briefs him about the fact that the virus may not be erased, but merely contained ; his poor choice of words awakens Demon Alpha once more. Grabbing Alpha by the neck, he drains the Power out of him, but fails to complete the process, and his arm gets destroyed, the Power leaking into him instead, transforming him into Demon Zetto. He fights with Alpha for a period of time, and during his last few seconds of stable mind as Zetto, he says "Kill...me..." before proceeding to knock Alpha down and finish him off.
Before he can make the final blow, Flamegirl kicks him in the back of the head,triggering the purple flame response, as Nylocke pierces him with his sword with the [[Drain Edge]] attached. The Forbidden Power, weakened by the antivirus and taken aback, is drained from him, causing him to collapse. After everyone has left, the Webmaster of TOME arrives and carries Zetto's body to the Heavens of Magical Expertise, in which he states that Zetto was very badly damaged. [[Kinderspirit]] points out that Zetto's eyes are grayed out, and that he must have unhooked himself from the game without logging out first. [[Webmaster]] comments "I wonder why...?" before the camera switches to Kirbopher looking at the crater Zetto's body was in, a gloomy expression on his face
===Season 2===
[[File:Zetto_season_2.png|thumb|Zetto's appearance in season 2.]]
Zetto reappears briefly in [[Year One|Episode 11]], conversing with [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]]. It is unknown what happened after he was taken to HOME, but sometime before the episode he updated his character model, giving him purple clothing, a metal breastplate, and a much larger mechanical arm on his left hand, replacing the one that was destroyed during [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. His personality has changed radically, as, even though he still tells Kizuna that cares just as much about playing the game as protecting the people in it, he acts noticeably less cocky and self-assured, and comes across as more secluded and focused than before.
In [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], a little while after Rubirules mockingly impersonates him, in part to offend Kirbopher, in front of the party of Challenge of the Netkings fighters, Zetto's identity as a Netking and battle system tester is revealed. Knowing that he was part of the Netkings, Alpha understand that the Netkings are undoubtedly aware the Forbidden Power exists, and angrily demands them explanations, only for Kajet's awakening to interrupt their meetup. At the end of the episode and after Alpha's gang is logged out forcefully by [[Webmaster]], Zetto appears in the Moon, informing Kizuna that the Netkings will be making their move on the Forbidden Power the next day. When he asks Kizuna what the plan is, she states that they are "officially out of time", and that she needs to make some "very important calls", which are to Rubirules, Neomutant and Oddball, to orchestrate a plan for the Dragon Bug pieces to come to the Moon for immediate construction.
In [[Episode 0]], Zetto's past with Kajet is explored. He and Kizuna are seen playing around with each other, Zetto lacking his signature gun arm. [[SOFDTI]] mentions that they have strong feelings for each other, which causes Kizuna to have an outburst which Zetto tries to calm her down from. This is SOFDTI's first exposure to strong negative feelings. Later, he is seen fighting against Kajet, however due to the Forbidden Power, his arm gets cut off and he is prematurely logged out due to the pain.
During [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto doubts the necessity of his and Kizuna's actions, while Kizuna affirms this is their only chance. When Nylocke is delivered to him, he turns him into the Dragon Bug head, saying that they just need to activate the power source. He also turns Flamegirl into the power source, before revealing himself to Alpha. He explains that their objective is to erase the Forbidden Power permanently and tells him he should have stayed out of this while he had the chance - as his coming to the moon was unnecessary, which he tried to warn him about while on Kirbopher's account - and that they can't be stopped now. However, when Flamegirl is turned into the power source, she contorts and groans, unlike Nylocke's instantaneous shift, which makes Zetto understand things are not going as planned. He tries to shut Dragon Bug down, but it fails. He shoots at it with his arm cannon, but the dragon defeats him and he is logged out on this account.
In Episode 15, after his attempt to combat Kajet with Kirbopher leaves the latter permanently damaged, he logs back into TOME using his administration privileges, coincidentally right next to where Alpha fell from the moon, reflecting on the time Rubirules recruited him. A moment later, Alpha stares at him, and realizes in a flash of lucidity who he really is. Lashing out at him, he angrily asks him why he "did it", to which Zetto tears up and tries to make Alpha understand he "just wanted to help everybody" and that "he let it get out of hand". Immediately after, the Dragon Bug and Kajet kill each other. Zetto, Kizuna and Alpha get closer to the battlefield only to see that the two are nothing but meaningless data anymore. He tries and fails to justify himself, only to see Rubirules fall from the sky and encase the Forbidden Power and Purple Flame.
As Rubirules finally lets everyone in on his actual intent - use the Power to control SOFDTI, rather than erase it - Zetto tries to stop him by saying that Flamegirl is not responding at all, and could possibly have brain damage. Rubirules, as part of Neomutant's plan, does not believe him; therefore, Zetto chooses to jump down and follow him to redeem his bad deeds, though he openly confesses to Kizuna, who follows him alongside Alpha, that he doesn't have a plan.
His words fail to convince Rubirules once more. After Kizuna is knocked out by him, he attempts to use his improved mechanical arm to absorb the Forbidden Power. Raw as it is in Rubirules's crystal, it only causes him immense pain, and he has to reluctantly agree to Alpha coming into contact with Kajet's spirit for the last time
Alpha eventually defeats Rubirules, but as SOFDTI contemplates how his love allowed for the Forbidden Power to be erased after all, KIzuna points her gun at her, angrily blaming her for everything that has happened to her and Zetto. She openly confesses her love for him as she says SOFDTI "could have taken him away" from her. Zetto, fully aware that she is wrong, decides to kick her out of the game by shooting her.
In the aftermath of Rubirules' defeat, Zetto adresses Webmaster for a wish he and his friends had for winning the Challenge of the Netkings. After burying Kirbopher in the forest of ;Lavendera, Zetto's player meets up with Alpha's, Nylocke's, and Flamegirl's, in Burbank, California, the latter's hometown.

They are victorious in this battle, only because Nylocke forfeits. It is strongly hinted at in [[Episode 0]] that Zetto did, or still does, have feelings for her. However, when Kizuna breaks down in front of [[SOFDTI]] in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] and attempts to destroy her out or sheer rage for the tragedies they have experienced, Zetto silently shoots her to force her out of the game, to which she tears up, having finally expressed open love for him to the AI. Kizuna does not appear in the real-life meetup of Zetto and his friends, and the future of their bond is unknown.
===Enemies===
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha vs Demon Zetto.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Zetto first battles Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], when the latter is terrorizing [[Mechcity]] under the influence of the Forbidden Power. Despite defeating Alpha, Zetto acts impressed by his abilities in combat, challenging him to fight in the Gemini Tournament, despite knowing full well his power is a threat to eliminate. When they finally face each other in the tournament, Zetto and Kizuna win the battle by default when Alpha and Flamegirl forfeit, simply in light of how little fun Zetto has. In The Warring Demons, Zetto confronts Alpha about the Forbidden Power and when Alpha is possessed by it once again, Zetto vows to get rid of it once and for all. He continues to hide his identity to Alpha until he realizes it himself in Episode 15. Due to the urgency of the situation, Zetto chooses to redeem himself by teaming up with Alpha and Kizuna to take down Rubirules.
==Abilities==
*'''Ki Generator''': Infinite spirit energy that the player can charge and release in explosive bursts.
*'''Ki Blade''': A blade made of energy that can morph and extend to different shapes by the user's will.
*'''Shiftarm''': A transforming arm that can shift between a cannon, a chain-link and a machine gun.
**'''The Anti-Virus Prototype''': The earlier version of Flamegirl's Anti-Virus installed in Zetto's Shiftarm, which also acts as a counter-measure against the [[Forbidden Power]]. Alhough it cannot defeat the virus, it can protect Zetto from its attacks.
*'''Breaker Beam''': A powerful attack that must be charged for a great amount of time, but releases a beam that covers the entire length of the battlefield. He can unleash an intentionally overcharged beam, but it will short-circuit his mechanical arm for a period of time.
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Zetto/Gallery]]</big>''
==Trivia==
*Zetto is featured on the cover of the Smooth Jazz version of "[[Battle On!]]", which [[Kirbopher]]'s voice actor sings, possibly an allusion to their sharing identities.
*Before the reveal in [[Episode 0]] about Zetto's history with the [[Forbidden Power]], there were various clues left throughout the ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]'' series.
**Before [[Alpha]] transforms in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto says, "It's taken longer than I wanted...but I finally have the means to extract it...and contain it. ''This time...for good!''" implying that he's tried to contain it before and failed.
** He also says, "Do you hear me in there, you monster?! ''I haven't forgotten... and I'll make sure you never hurt ANYONE ELSE!''" implying the Forbidden Power did something to him in the past.
**[[File:QuickFlashbackZetto.png|thumb|The flashback image of Zetto during The Warring Demons.]]Moments before Zetto attempts to extract the Forbidden Power from Alpha, Zetto is seen from Alpha's point of view. The screen rapidly flickers between the current Zetto and his character model from before Kajet cut off his arm.
** The Forbidden Power says through Alpha's head, "I want him to suffer all over again".
**Episode 12 strongly hints that Zetto had a large role in developing or testing the Forbidden Power before it was hidden away.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] and [[Plan Z]], clues were dropped throughout the Gemini Tournament arc and the beginning of the episode that indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person. Reasons include:
**Both being interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher standing immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
** With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
**Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines were both "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!". This line is the one that allows Alpha to piece his identity together
**As the [[Webmaster]] stated at the end of Episode 10, players who leave the game without logging off remain in the game, with their character model's eyes turning grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after being stabbed by Nylocke, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor; this was hidden to the public by a pseudonym until Episode 10.
**In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.
**Zetto's old character design is similar to Kirbopher's 3rd character design. The version of Kirbopher that appears in ''TOME'' is the 4th character design.
*Zetto is the Japanese name for the letter Z, the last letter of the [[wikipedia:Latin alphabet|Latin alphabet]]. This contrasts with Alpha, whose name is the first letter of the [[wikipedia:Greek alphabet|Greek alphabet]], as the two characters are portrayed as relative opposites.
*Zetto's Breaker Beam attack is derived from ''[[w:c:mario:Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Super Mario RPG]]'', which heavingly influenced the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]] of the series.
*The character Lord Zett, from Chris Niosi's original series ''Super Freakin' Parody Rangers'', is based off of the design for Zetto from the TOME precursor series, ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He is also voiced by Niosi.
* Zetto's design for [[Episode 0]] is most likely a callback to his design in ''TV TOME Adventures''.
* The font that Zetto uses through the series is called "Kinglify".<ref>https://www.tumblr.com/moonlightchronicle/152251904868/whats-the-name-of-the-font-used-for-zetto-on-the</ref>
*Zetto, alongside [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]], are playable characters in the [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo Switch|Nintendo Switch]] game ''[[w:c:combat-core:Combat Core|Combat Core]]'', making them the only two ''Terrain of Magical Expertise'' characters to appear in a non-TOME based video game project. Niosi reprised his role from the original series.
*According to Chris Niosi, [[w:c:dragonball:Vegeta|Vegeta]] from the ''[[w:c:dragonball:Dragon Ball (franchise)|Dragon Ball]]'' franchise was a large influence on Zetto's character design and personality, to the point where the character was very derivative of him in the original ''TV Tome Adventures'' incarnation. Coincidentally, [[wikipedia:Eric Vale|Eric Vale]] (whom voiced Zetto in the RPG) frequently voices Vegeta's son, [[w:c:dragonball:Future Trunks|Trunks]], throughout the English version of the franchise.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[TOME (Series)|TOME]]. He is [[Fighter]] class and has abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[Episode 1]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in Episode 15 to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the Forbidden Power, and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in Episode 15, his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One|Episode 11]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the Netkings or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In Episode 14, Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by Tigerlily, under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in <nowiki>;Mechcity</nowiki>, which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During Episode 7, a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype Ravenfreak had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, Nylocke hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword (Drain Edge equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Forbidden Power|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[Episode 10]] to [[Episode 15]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Episode 15]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Forbidden Power|Demon]] [[Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One|Episode 11]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in AvZ.

*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's best friend Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[TOME (Series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[Episode 1]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in Episode 15 to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the Forbidden Power, and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in Episode 15, his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One|Episode 11]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the Netkings or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In Episode 14, Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by Tigerlily, under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in <nowiki>;Mechcity</nowiki>, which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During Episode 7, a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype Ravenfreak had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, Nylocke hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword (Drain Edge equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Forbidden Power|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[Episode 10]] to [[Episode 15]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Episode 15]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Forbidden Power|Demon]] [[Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One|Episode 11]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in AvZ.

*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's best friend Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl]] at most.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[TOME (Series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[Episode 1]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in Episode 15 to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the Forbidden Power, and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in Episode 15, his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One|Episode 11]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the Netkings or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In Episode 14, Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by Tigerlily, under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in <nowiki>;Mechcity</nowiki>, which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During Episode 7, a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype Ravenfreak had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, Nylocke hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword (Drain Edge equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Forbidden Power|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[Episode 10]] to [[Episode 15]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Episode 15]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Forbidden Power|Demon]] [[Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One|Episode 11]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in AvZ.

*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's best friend Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME.

'''Flamegirl''', sometimes called "Flamey" (born Stephanie Basco), is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in TOME, a [[Spellcaster]] with the power of fire. Unbeknownst to her, the antivirus program - or "Purple Flame" - to cure the Forbidden Power had been attached to her character model in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]], which was the power source of the Dragon Bug. This made her the only person able to stop the Power's influence on [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], and later put her in risk of brain death when the Purple Flame was used by [[Rubirules]] to try and control SOFDTI.
==Biography==
Before the events of TOME, Flamegirl was partners with the user of [[Neomutant]] in programming at their high school. She got mad at the heavy amount of secrecy and thus left Neomutant behind.
===Season 1===
Flamegirl first appears in [[You Gotta Virus]] where she is talking to Gamecrazed and awaits the arrival of the rest of her friends. Alpha and [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] finally arrive and they all begin to discuss plans on how they'll deal with the hackers who keep ravaging TOME.
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.
She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the [[Forbidden Power]] took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Her apparent love interest, the two are quite close. She is impressed by the sheer power and confidence Alpha exerts while using the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': The two seem to be close friends, but due to both being close to Alpha, they also appear to have a rivalry for his friendship, they often get into fights and arguments and seem to disagree a lot about things.
*'''[[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]''': Flamegirl knows more about Nylocke's true personality than any of the others, due to the fact that she was online when he logged on drunk one day.
*'''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': The two have not interacted very much.
*'''[[Saturndiva]]''' & '''[[Whyti]]''': They are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of [[Mechcity]].
===Enemies===
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Like the rest of her group, she often fights hackers together with her friends.
*'''[[Neomutant]]''': Though Flamegirl has dismissed him several times, and regards him as a stalker with clear distain, Neomutant still pursues her affection, going as far as to join TOME as a hacker to protect her from Alpha.
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Flamegirl, along with Alpha, approached her age-old Hacker enemy towards the end of [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]]. This was when she first saw the Forbidden Power within Alpha.
==Abilities==
*'''Flame Bullet''': A rapid projectile attack that allows the user to shoot small blasts of fire from their fingers.
*'''Rocket Burn''': A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. This move can also be turned into a spinning attack.
*'''Angry Burst''': A short-range but forceful attack made of concentrated flames.
*'''Sun Bomb''': A chargable projectile attack that moves slowly but causes a greater explosion upon impact.
*'''The Anti-Virus''': A purple flame that acts as a vaccine against the Forbidden Power, which she unknowningly obtained from [[Ravenfreak]] in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]].
==Trivia==
* Flamegirl's ID number is 008-974-659.

Flamegirl first appears in [[You Gotta Virus]] where she is talking to Gamecrazed and awaits the arrival of the rest of her friends. Alpha and [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] finally arrive and they all begin to discuss plans on how they'll deal with the hackers who keep ravaging TOME.
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.
She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the [[Forbidden Power]] took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Her apparent love interest, the two are quite close. She is impressed by the sheer power and confidence Alpha exerts while using the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': The two seem to be close friends, but due to both being close to Alpha, they also appear to have a rivalry for his friendship, they often get into fights and arguments and seem to disagree a lot about things.
*'''[[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]''': Flamegirl knows more about Nylocke's true personality than any of the others, due to the fact that she was online when he logged on drunk one day.
*'''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': The two have not interacted very much.
*'''[[Saturndiva (TOME)|Saturndiva]]''' & '''[[Whyti (TOME)|Whyti]]''': They are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of [[Mechcity]].
===Enemies===
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Like the rest of her group, she often fights hackers together with her friends.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': Though Flamegirl has dismissed him several times, and regards him as a stalker with clear distain, Neomutant still pursues her affection, going as far as to join TOME as a hacker to protect her from Alpha.
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': Flamegirl, along with Alpha, approached her age-old Hacker enemy towards the end of [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]]. This was when she first saw the Forbidden Power within Alpha.
==Abilities==
*'''Flame Bullet''': A rapid projectile attack that allows the user to shoot small blasts of fire from their fingers.
*'''Rocket Burn''': A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. This move can also be turned into a spinning attack.
*'''Angry Burst''': A short-range but forceful attack made of concentrated flames.
*'''Sun Bomb''': A chargable projectile attack that moves slowly but causes a greater explosion upon impact.
*'''The Anti-Virus''': A purple flame that acts as a vaccine against the Forbidden Power, which she unknowningly obtained from [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]].
==Trivia==
* Flamegirl's ID number is 008-974-659.

'''Flamegirl''', sometimes called "Flamey" (born Stephanie Basco), is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in TOME, a [[Spellcaster]] with the power of fire.

'''Rockoon''' is a recurring hacker in the TOME series and leader of "The Trouble Makers" in the TOME RPG adaptation, in the [[Animalistic]] class with the power of Explosives. Though he has not shown any hacking attempts since [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], he spends his time being a general nuisance and annoying other players. He also has become disillusioned with TOME recently, imploring other players to give up the game.
==Biography==
Before the events of TOME, Flamegirl was partners with the user of [[Neomutant]] in programming at their high school. She got mad at the heavy amount of secrecy and thus left Neomutant behind.
===Season 1===
Flamegirl first appears in [[You Gotta Virus]] where she is talking to Gamecrazed and awaits the arrival of the rest of her friends. Alpha and [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] finally arrive and they all begin to discuss plans on how they'll deal with the hackers who keep ravaging TOME.
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Despite being a hacker and main recurring antagonist, Rockoon tends to have a very playful, charismatic personality and is a very hyper individual. He has also been noted to become easily offended by obscene or profane language, often calling people "mother scratchers" instead of cursing. As "Rackoon" he makes exaggerated gestures as a mock of martial arts films and anime. He dislikes being referred to as a rodent, explaining that raccoons are closer related to bears instead of rats.
At the finale of Season 2, he is seen to have redeemed himself and began to open up to others, even going as far as defending [[Archy (TOME)|Archy]] being bullied by [[Odboll (TOME)|Odboll]].
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Doubling (TOME)|Doubling]]''': Along with Rockoon, Doubling was one of the first [[Hacker|hackers]] introduced in the series, and both work together to try and obtain the "ultimate power" during [[You've Gotta Virus]]. Doubling is considerably less enthusiastic about this task than Rockoon, who he finds to be quite irritating. After [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] scares off Doubling with the [[Forbidden Power]], he abandons Rockoon, only to return to him later under the guise of a new account, Skeight. Rockoon shows great irritation towards [[Skeight (TOME)|Skeight]], as he copies his traditional "Whubba?" catchphrase, going as far as to make Rockoon kick him out of the arena in the [[Gemini Tournament]]. In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Rockoon had enough of Skeight and he told him to get lost along with the fact he doesn't need anyone but himself. Finally giving up on him, Skeight said his catchphrase, "mother scratcher", as his goodbye, making Rockoon realizing that Skeight is actually Doubling as Rockoon regrets the things he said and did to him. In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], he tries to send an apologetic letter to him but instead deleted in doing so. Whether Rockoon and Doubling became friends again remains unknown.
*'''[[Archy (TOME)|Archy]]''': [wip]
===Enemies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': When Rockoon fights Alpha in [[You've Gotta Virus]], he is hurt by the Forbidden Power, which causes him to have an almost paralyzing fear of him. In [[Fraggedquest]], he nearly defeats the rest of Alpha's friends during a glitched quest, but Alpha breaks into the corrupted grid, causing Rockoon to panic and leaving him vulnerable.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': Rockoon first encounters Kirbopher after he tries to run away from Alpha and is cut in half by Kirbopher. As a result, Rockoon begins to grow resentment towards Kirbopher, mocking him in [[Fraggedquest]]. He addresses Kirb as "Marshmallow Man" and, in the Gemini Tournament, names a move "The Kirb Stomp" after his hatred towards him.
==Abilities==
*'''Bomboulder''': A sharp rock hollowed out and filled with explosives. Two can be lobbed at once. They have been hacked to be able to corrupt graphics in the virtual world.
*'''Tail Twister''': A spinning dash attack in which the user is enveloped in a raging twister.
*'''Mining''': Allows the user to burrow underground and pop out with a sneak attack.
==Trivia==
*Rockoon's voice actor, Deven Mack Jr., also wrote for the character beginning at his second appearance. A lot of Mack's personality was also implanted in his character development later on in the series and RPG.
*According to Deven Mack, a lot of Rockoon's personality and voice quips was influenced by Team Rocket (or more specifically Meowth) from the Pokémon series, Daffy Duck, Ken Ichijouji (specifically his "Digimon Emperor" persona) from the Digimon series, Chris Tucker, R-Truth and Tetsuya Watarigani from the Beyblade: Metal Fusion series.
**Daffy and Tetsuya's iconic laughs were the inspiration for Rockoon's recurring laughter.
*During Episode 4, he coughs and says, "Man I gotta stop doing this voice thing", this could mean either his known voice is an act, or his voice hurt from a voice attack he used before this quote.
**This could also allude to his voice actor, Deven Mack Jr. who has gone on record to say that he was trying to get out of freelance voice acting when Chris Niosi approached him to voice Rockoon, and that playing the character was a favor he normally wouldn't have done.
*When he appears in episode 8, he changes his username to Rackoon and his fur color has changed to red. This is a nod to his original appearance in TTA.
*Rockoon's IRL name is known to be Rodney from a private message he was about to send to Skeight/Doubling in the ending of Episode 15. In the April Fools Special, it confirms that Rockoon's full name is Rodney J. Rockwell.
*According to Deven Mack, his IRL name was influenced by fellow TOME cast member Edwyn Tiong's character "Rodney Bulge" from the web series Wonders of the Universe. Mack also co-starred with Tiong on that series.
*The fact bubbles of Episode 4 implied that Rockoon is younger than most characters in the series, as he is described as "an irritable know-it-all kid".
*According to Chris Niosi, one of Rockoon's idioms, "mother scratchers", was derived from a quote uttered by Big Bob Pataki from the Nickelodeon series, Hey Arnold!.

'''Rockoon''' is a recurring hacker in the TOME series and leader of "The Trouble Makers" in the TOME RPG adaptation, in the [[Animalistic]] class with the power of Explosives. Though he has not shown any hacking attempts since [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], he spends his time being a general nuisance and annoying other players. He also has become disillusioned with TOME recently, imploring other players to give up the game.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Despite being a hacker and main recurring antagonist, Rockoon tends to have a very playful, charismatic personality and is a very hyper individual. He has also been noted to become easily offended by obscene or profane language, often calling people "mother scratchers" instead of cursing. As "Rackoon" he makes exaggerated gestures as a mock of martial arts films and anime. He dislikes being referred to as a rodent, explaining that raccoons are closer related to bears instead of rats.
At the finale of Season 2, he is seen to have redeemed himself and began to open up to others, even going as far as defending [[Archy (TOME)|Archy]] being bullied by [[Odboll (TOME)|Odboll]].
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Doubling (TOME)|Doubling]]''': Along with Rockoon, Doubling was one of the first [[Hacker|hackers]] introduced in the series, and both work together to try and obtain the "ultimate power" during [[You've Gotta Virus]]. Doubling is considerably less enthusiastic about this task than Rockoon, who he finds to be quite irritating. After [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] scares off Doubling with the [[Forbidden Power]], he abandons Rockoon, only to return to him later under the guise of a new account, Skeight. Rockoon shows great irritation towards [[Skeight (TOME)|Skeight]], as he copies his traditional "Whubba?" catchphrase, going as far as to make Rockoon kick him out of the arena in the [[Gemini Tournament]]. In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Rockoon had enough of Skeight and he told him to get lost along with the fact he doesn't need anyone but himself. Finally giving up on him, Skeight said his catchphrase, "mother scratcher", as his goodbye, making Rockoon realizing that Skeight is actually Doubling as Rockoon regrets the things he said and did to him. In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], he tries to send an apologetic letter to him but instead deleted in doing so. Whether Rockoon and Doubling became friends again remains unknown.
*'''[[Archy (TOME)|Archy]]''': [wip]
===Enemies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': When Rockoon fights Alpha in [[You've Gotta Virus]], he is hurt by the Forbidden Power, which causes him to have an almost paralyzing fear of him. In [[Fraggedquest]], he nearly defeats the rest of Alpha's friends during a glitched quest, but Alpha breaks into the corrupted grid, causing Rockoon to panic and leaving him vulnerable.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': Rockoon first encounters Kirbopher after he tries to run away from Alpha and is cut in half by Kirbopher. As a result, Rockoon begins to grow resentment towards Kirbopher, mocking him in [[Fraggedquest]]. He addresses Kirb as "Marshmallow Man" and, in the Gemini Tournament, names a move "The Kirb Stomp" after his hatred towards him.
==Abilities==
*'''Bomboulder''': A sharp rock hollowed out and filled with explosives. Two can be lobbed at once. They have been hacked to be able to corrupt graphics in the virtual world.
*'''Tail Twister''': A spinning dash attack in which the user is enveloped in a raging twister.
*'''Mining''': Allows the user to burrow underground and pop out with a sneak attack.
==Trivia==
*Rockoon's voice actor, Deven Mack Jr., also wrote for the character beginning at his second appearance. A lot of Mack's personality was also implanted in his character development later on in the series and RPG.
*According to Deven Mack, a lot of Rockoon's personality and voice quips was influenced by Team Rocket (or more specifically Meowth) from the Pokémon series, Daffy Duck, Ken Ichijouji (specifically his "Digimon Emperor" persona) from the Digimon series, Chris Tucker, R-Truth and Tetsuya Watarigani from the Beyblade: Metal Fusion series.
**Daffy and Tetsuya's iconic laughs were the inspiration for Rockoon's recurring laughter.
*During Episode 4, he coughs and says, "Man I gotta stop doing this voice thing", this could mean either his known voice is an act, or his voice hurt from a voice attack he used before this quote.
**This could also allude to his voice actor, Deven Mack Jr. who has gone on record to say that he was trying to get out of freelance voice acting when Chris Niosi approached him to voice Rockoon, and that playing the character was a favor he normally wouldn't have done.
*When he appears in episode 8, he changes his username to Rackoon and his fur color has changed to red. This is a nod to his original appearance in TTA.
*Rockoon's IRL name is known to be Rodney from a private message he was about to send to Skeight/Doubling in the ending of Episode 15. In the April Fools Special, it confirms that Rockoon's full name is Rodney J. Rockwell.
*According to Deven Mack, his IRL name was influenced by fellow TOME cast member Edwyn Tiong's character "Rodney Bulge" from the web series Wonders of the Universe. Mack also co-starred with Tiong on that series.
*The fact bubbles of Episode 4 implied that Rockoon is younger than most characters in the series, as he is described as "an irritable know-it-all kid".
*According to Chris Niosi, one of Rockoon's idioms, "mother scratchers", was derived from a quote uttered by Big Bob Pataki from the Nickelodeon series, Hey Arnold!.

Neomutant is a hacker first seen in Episode 7, hired by Tigerlilly to test the Antivirus's efficiency after it was implanted on its carrier. He is in the Fighter class and has the power of electricity. He was in reality first hired by Rubirules to encode the Antivirus well before Kizuna thought of hiring him, and it was he who proposed Flamegirl as the carrier because of his unsatisfied, lingering feelings for her, that would fuel the program and make it powerful enough, providing him with a revenge when she would suffer the effects of the Dragon Bug's creation.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Although he is a hacker, he appears to embrace this condition solely to pursue Flamegirl and make sure Alpha doesn't hurt her, prolonging his one-sided affection. At one point, he comments, "To think this child was my competition," signifying his jealousy towards Alpha.
He was described by Chris Niosi to have a low self-esteem, as well as being highly charismatic, and paradoxically rather prone to flaunting his intellectual prowess. Flamegirl openly recognizes that he is mentally gifted, and an excellent programmer.
Neomutant is notable in that all of the apparent traits and motives he exhbits since his apparition only are a cover-up for the deep hatred he harbors for his former love, and are part of a general betrayal revenge plan. When having the opportunity to suggest a carrier for the Antivirus, he covertly proposed for it to be Flamegirl, tricking Rubirules into believing she would not be harmed, even though his implementation of the power source would risk causing her serious brain damage.
In watching the events unfold, he acted as though he still loved her and even held a sense of honor and justice in Episodes 13 and 14, simply in order to lure her into getting trapped inside TOME's moon. Neomutant is consequently extremely vicious and manipulative, which is only revealed in Episode 15, in addition to his psychopathic sadism. Chris Niosi has posited that he was most certainly arrested alongside Rubirules, for having done "even worse things" than him.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]]''': When Rubirules came to Flamegirl and Neomutant's high school to give a lecture on programming, he spotted Neomutant's programming skills and secretly hired him to encode the Antivirus. Later, when Stephanie refused to join him in his secret work, he elaborated a complex revenge plan and proposed her as a guinea pig to Rubirules, making sure to pretend she wouldn't be hurt, as he knew Rubirules wanted to feel righteous about his own motives.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': Neomutant has some history with Flamegirl, as he used to be in a computer coding class with her in high school. She respected his skill in coding, but he misinterpreted her kindness towards him as affection. He pretends to still harbor strong feelings for her, and fakes protecting her from Alpha when he loses control to the Forbidden Power - while, in reality, he does everything to elicit a response from the virus and push her in its way to trigger the purple flame. His sole goal is to avenge her refusal of his love by hurting her via the creation of the Dragon Bug. His life revolves around that objective to a maniacal degree.
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Neomutant first meets Alpha in Episode 7, and takes an instant disliking to him. He is quite visibly jealous of Alpha's relationship with Flamegirl. After temporarily paralyzing Alpha, the Forbidden Power takes control of Alpha's body and Neomutant attempts to fight him. In Episode 13, Alpha is forced to ally with him in order to infiltrate D-Buggers' base of operations, in a staged scenario created by Rubirules, Kizuna and Zetto to bring the Dragon Bug pieces together. This leaves their relationship strained in Episode 14 when the security alarm within the base is activated, but Neomutant, playing his part in this scenario, ultimately defends Alpha and helps him fight [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]] before being defeated. This doesn't change the fact that Neomutant very seemingly enjoys Alpha's distress upon him learning of his true goal. He comments about how "it's almost poetic how everything fell into place", since the human emotions of Flamegirl needed for the Dragon Bug were thanks to Alpha.
==Abilities==
*'''Zigzagzap''': A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Thunder Charge''': The user is struck by lightning that temporarily boosts their strength and can damage an opponent upon close impact.
*'''Drum Sparks''': Six electrical orbs appear around the user and are launched in succession at the opponent like a cannon.
==Trivia==
*Neomutant's season 1 design is similar to Deoxys from Pokémon. Both have red-orange as a primary color, have a similar body shape, are tall, and have similar colored items on their bodies. The TTA version of Neomutant looked even more like Deoxys, as far as having similar colors, shapes, designs, and object locations. This was because TTA's Neomutant was a sprite edit of Deoxys.
*Even though he has said to have given up on being together with Flamegirl, Neomutant does everything to make it seem like he still has strong feelings for her, going as far to protect her from Alpha when taken over by the Forbidden Power, and saying to his "employer" - who actually only is the pawn of his true boss - "I'll live, but I don't want [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Stephanie]] to get hurt again. This had better not get out of hand!"
*Neomutant is one of two secondary characters to have a unique theme song (Spanish Drive). The other is [[Serpentine (TOME)|Serpentine]].
*Neomutant has spiky fangs underneath his mask, representing how Neomutant is a cruel, manipulative person behind his caring facade.

Rubirules is Netking Number 4 of TOME and is the hidden main antagonist of the series. He was in charge of the graphic design for all of TOME and created the character customization system. He is also the one whose approval is needed for each character created in the game, by his own statement in Episode 12. His only power is the ability to transform into any character in the game and use their respective powers.
It is revealed in the series finale, [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], that he created [[D-Buggers.org]] in order to seek out hackers to recover the [[Forbidden Power]]. Though he attempts and succeeds to fool others, most notably [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]], into believing that he acts for the greater good, he is tragically driven by ambition and eagerness for fame.
==Biography==
===Pre-Season 1===
In the year 2020, seven computer programmers (from the company known as [[Netking Software]]) were hired by [[Plan.Net]] to create the first ever fully virtual-reality video game, of whom Rubirules was one. Although Rubirules served as the graphic and character designer for the game, he had an inflated sense of self-worth right from the get-go and was primarily interested in the possibility of going down in history as opposed to creating something special, although he kept this sentiment hidden from the other Netkings. Rubirules also had a fondness for retro fantasy games and RPGs, in addition to comic books and other visual mediums, which inspired him during the game's development.
During the development of the game, the [[Netkings]] discovered that they had accidentally created a fully sentient Artificial Intelligence, whom was affectionately dubbed "[[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]]". Rubirules was responsible for designing SOFDTI's character model (which was given a simple, human-like appearance to allow for better communication). Although Rubirules felt that the best way to utilize SOFDTI would be to contact the government and revolutionize the world's technology using her coding, his idea was quickly shot down by the other Netkings, who loved SOFDTI like a daughter and did not want to see her misused or taken away from them. Rubirules was irritated by this, believing that treating a computer program as a living thing was asinine, but kept quiet and allowed the game to resume development as was intended.
Rubirules' negative emotions, along with [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]]'s and (to a lesser extent) the other Netkings', eventually began to be absorbed by SOFDTI, growing into a virus within her. At some point, Rubirules designed a character named "The Shadowguard Beast", who was meant to be the game's first boss - however, it accidentally absorbed the virus SOFDTI was carrying within her, becoming a monstrosity named Kajet, which had the ability to hurt people in real life by turning data into negative human thought and tricking the brain's functions into experiencing pain. [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] was its first victim, prompting immediate panic from the developers. Although Rubirules and the other Netkings attempted to keep it contained, only SOFDTI was able to ultimately seal it away using an antivirus code directly translating positive emotions into code. The virus, incapable of such a transformation, and only able to act the other way around, stayed dormant until [[Alpha (TOME)|a victim]] came close enough for him to latch on.
Netking Software was forced to make a deal with the government as a result of this incident. Although SOFDTI was allowed to continue to survive, she was forced into a dormant state in which she could become the game's engine, and the Netkings were forced to keep her existence a secret to avoid risking harm to players. The game, which was eventually released on February 20th, 2020, was named in honor of SOFDTI- as she was able to process every emotion of every human being plugged into the game, she effectively had become a living [[TOME]]. Embittered by this decision, Rubirules secretly began developing his own antivirus code named the "[[Dragon Bug]]", hoping to use it to control the virus and, by extension, SOFDTI, whom he intended to use to gain fame and fortune for himself, though pretending to only care for the well-being of everyone around him.
At some point, Rubirules visited a high school in Burbank, California, where he met [[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]], and took him in as his protegé. Rubirules and Neomutant programmed the "head" of the Dragon Bug, keeping it a secret by hiding it inside a "Dragon Man" character model and presenting it as the prize for being the 1,111,111th registered player of TOME (a contest which was won by [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]). Rubirules also convinced [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]] to help him find the virus, claiming that it needed to be found and stopped before it could hurt anyone else. Kizuna and Zetto began hiring various contractors to carry out specific tasks within TOME, resulting in the formation of the hacker organization [[D-Buggers.org]], while Rubirules and Neomutant continued to work on their vaccination program. During this time, Rubirules continued to pretend to care about SOFDTI, and continued to act as Netking #4 and the game's character creation system manager. However, Rubirules slowly became more and more obsessed with his goal, becoming willing to hurt actual people in the pursuit of his ambition.
===Season 2===
As Zetto and Kizuna continued to work on the Dragon Bug and hired contractors to find the virus for him, Rubirules worked with Neomutant to create the "Purple Flame", the virus's power source. Drawing energy from Neomutant's unrequited "love" for Flamegirl, the Dragon Bug was able to emulate SOFDTI's code and could successfully function as an antivirus capable of damaging Kajet. However, Neomutant's emotions, while still technically positive, were founded on obsessive and selfish desires (as opposed to the Netkings' selfless parental love for SOFDTI), resulting in the Purple Flame becoming flawed and unstable. Neomutant convinced Rubirules to tell Zetto and Kizuna to give the Purple Flame to Flamegirl upon its completion, knowing full well it could put her in danger, but hiding it from Rubirules.
The Antivirus worked as a successful counter to the Virus after it resurfaced by latching itself onto [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]'s subconscious, this time, due to Alpha and Flamegirl's genuine feelings for each other. However, it remained secretly dangerous were it ever to be separated from Flamegirl, and had the potential to consume her if it was left unchecked. During this time, Rubirules mostly allowed Zetto and Kizuna to act on their own accord, hoping that they would find the virus and attempt to delete it with the Dragon Bug. However, he did occasionally manipulate events to better fit his ultimate agenda, such as when he sent [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]] to [[Dragon Drama|check if Nylocke still held the Dragon Bug's head within his character model]]. Rubirules also recreated the Shadowguard Beast at some point and used it in a [[Fraggedquest|sidequest involving the collection of fragments of an idol]], due to his pride as an artist. Rubirules refrained from telling Zetto and Kizuna about his ultimate agenda, and had them believe that they would delete the virus when they found it instead of using it in any way.
A [[Year One|year later]], either Rubirules or [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]] suggested to the other Netkings that a [[Secret of the Netkings|special battle sidequest]] be offered in celebration of TOME's anniversary - Rubirules had stated that it had been something they had wanted to do since the beginning of the game's development. After [[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]] and [[Bishipp (TOME)|Bishipp]] hosted a contest in celebration of such a major milestone for the game (a contest which Gamecrazed won), Rubirules assumed the shape of Zetto and appeared to the main protagonists, sending them all into a panic. [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], feeling that he needed to avenge Zetto's honor, took this joke personally, and subsequently fought and beat him. During this fight, Rubirules revealed to Nylocke that he was indeed the creator of his character model, although he did not tell him that he had secretly hid the Dragon Bug's head inside (opting instead to make a reference to ''Star Wars''). He took the occasion to claim that every character's model, and more especially Nylocke's, belonged to him as an artist, since his system had profoundly influenced their creation.
After the Challenge of the Netkings was completed, Rubirules appeared to the protagonists along with all of the other Netkings, revealing to them his position as lead character designer. When the Forbidden Power broke free of the [[Drain Edge]], Rubirules pretended not to know about it, although he did have a vague idea of what was happening due to his involvement with the hackers. After Webmaster forced the heroes out of TOME for their own safety, Rubirules and Kizuna sent Neomutant to lure Flamegirl and Nylocke to the Hacker Base within TOME's moon, hoping the Dragon Bug could be completed before Kajet inevitably broke free again. He then similarly feigned assistance in sealing Kajet away once more (by attempting to copy SOFDTI's containment code), but allowed it to break free so he could use the Dragon Bug to control it.
After both Kajet and the [[Dragon Bug]] were destroyed in the ensuing battle, Rubirules revealed himself to the other Netkings, telling them about his plan and asking if any of them wanted to take part. Zetto tried to reason with him that even though SOFDTI herself did not matter to him, Flamegirl's player was in serious danger from the eruption of the purple flame, which Rubi did not believe - as Neomutant has never revealed this to him.
When no one took him up on his offer, Rubirules travelled towards [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (Series Game)|TOME]]'s core on his own, knowing he would find [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]] there. Upon reaching the core, however, Rubirules was approached by [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]], who revealed himself to be SOFDTI's "shadow" - a character model created to help defeat the [[D-Buggers.org|malicious players]] hired to tear apart TOME and seek out the [[Forbidden Power]].
After defeating Gamecrazed with the Virus, however, [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]], [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]], and [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] appeared to try and stop him, infuriating Rubirules to the point where he declared to not care even if [[Flamegirl]] happened to be in actual danger, because changing the world mattered more. After Alpha merged with [[Kajet (TOME)|Kajet]] to attempt to stop him, Rubirules used the Antivirus data to shift his character model into an enormous monster, and later into a recolored version of Alpha, to defeat him. However, Rubirules's plan was stopped by Kajet's power overriding the Antivirus, resulting in Rubirules being logged out.
After the fight, Rubirules reappeared in the game to berate the other Netkings, as he felt that using SOFDTI to make a video game instead of revolutionizing the world was simply absurd. However, he was soon met by a government agent named [[Giga (TOME)|Giga]], who informed him that by revealing SOFDTI's existence to Alpha (in addition to playing a role in Flamegirl's near-death) he had violated the law, and that local authorities would arrive at his home shortly. Angered, Rubirules attempted to insult the other Netkings, but was interrupted by [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], who defeated him and logged him out of the game. He was likely arrested and his ultimate fate is unknown.
==Personality==
At first, Rubirules makes an impression of being a mere jokester always making puns and doing impersonations whenever he can, not taking things seriously. He acts oblivious to the existence of Kajet when it's brought up just like the rest of the Netkings. He is fun-loving and has a knack for retro games, cheesy pop culture references, and somewhat abrasive poking and teasing.
This is only the surface of his personality; deeper down, he's a cruel individual who is willing to use others for his own gain. Rubirules is obsessed with trying to use SOFDTI to start a technological revolution and had no remorse or second thoughts for his actions as he had caused all the main characters the drama and pain they all went through. When Flamegirl was discovered to not be responding once the [[Dragon Bug]] was destroyed, he showed no signs of caring and is willing to sacrifice real lives just to reach his goals.
However, Gamecrazed pointed out that Rubirules always manages to absolutely convince himself that he is right and that he acts out of altruist concern for the greater good. His drive for fame seem rather desperate, and he genuinely believes in a better future under SOFDTI's revolutionary drive, despite his callous character.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]''': Zetto had agreed with Rubirules in the past after he had suffered immense pain from Kajet and joined him in his quest to find SOFDTI. He persuaded Zetto to join D-Buggers and become the Co-Administrator of the organization, gaining his trust and using his trauma and insecurities against him. The two were rarely in direct contact and Zetto was let relatively free to battle and even create a separate account, as long as his mission was progressing. He considers both him and Kizuna "ignorant thumbsuckers", and especially thinks of the emotionally unstable Zetto as a "failure".
*'''[[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]]: Kizuna was convinced by Rubirules to join D-Buggers after the incident between Zetto and Kajet and she became the Administrator of D-Buggers. Kizuna obeyed Rubirules, proving diligent enough in undertaking the tasks that had to be dealt with for their common goal, so much so that he had little direct involvement, and more or less handed her all of his dirty work.
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Rubirules had been the real culprit behind the hackers coming in and ravaging TOME in search of the Forbidden Power. He only needed them for simple tasks and quickly dealt away with them once they completed his tasks. He was the source of their payment.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]: Rubirules met Neomutant when giving a lecture at his high school and hired him, as partly mentioned by Flamegirl. Neomutant was secretly brought on for developing assistance, and thus did so by choosing Flamegirl to be the carrier of the Anti-Virus. Though it was done out of personal revenge, Neomutant accepted it and he became an employee of D-Buggers. It is probable Rubirules took a liking to him for their common ease with manipulation. However, Neomutant ended up being the one to manipulate him, as to the very end, Rubirules had no idea that Flamegirl would be endangered by the Dragon Bug.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Rubirules got annoyed and frustrated with Alpha as he was the only one who constantly opposed him and tried to stop him from getting to SOFDTI. Because Rubi didn't care that Stephanie could've been dead, this only infuriated Alpha.
*'''[[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]''': Once Zetto found out what Rubi wanted to do with both the virus and the vaccination, he got furious as he saw his true intention on making millions and allowing Flamegirl to possibly die made Zetto fight against him after he was betrayed by him. Rubirules had delt with Zetto the moment he fought him and did it without second thoughts.
*'''[[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]]''': Once Kizuna found out what Rubirules was truly bent on doing, she got mad and did whatever it took to stop him from getting SOFDTI and allowing Flamey to essentially die just to make money. RUbi fought and beat her quickly and without remorse.
*'''[[Netkings]]''': Rubirules had always been at odds with the other Netkings over their views of SOFDTI since they used her for a video game which disgusted Rubirules who wanted to use her for greater means. As a result, he looked down on the other Netkings for viewing SOFDTI as a living being and betrayed them without second thoughts.
*'''[[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]]''': Rubirules saw SODFTI as an artificial intelligence and coding and looked at her as that while the other Netkings treated her as their child since they created sentient life. He had been obsessed with tracking her down and finding her and thus formed D-Buggers in order to do that. Rubirules wanted to use SOFDTI as a source of technological gain and profit for technological revolution and get rich.
Gamecrazed: Rubirules only met GC once but he was the first one to discover that GC was apart of SOFDTI. He fought Gamecrazed and eventually faced Alpha, Zetto, and Kizuna shortly after.
==Abilities==
===As Himself===
*'''Mirror Body''': Within a few seconds, Rubirules can encase himself in crystal and come back out as the character of his choosing. He gains a character's appearance and abilities, and there doesn't seem to be a clear restriction as to who he can't copy. His performance while copying a certain character is only limited by his own combat ability, which is systematically more limited than the character he imitates, as he can be anyone, but doesn't know any one character as well. Rubirules' main weakness is that he can be easily hit while he's transforming into someone else, as the crystals that surround him are not indestructible.
*'''Gem Prison''': Rubirules creates one or two floating, diamond-shaped barriers to seal and contain raw data. As this ability has only ever been used to contain data that was not a regular part of the game, it is unknown what this ability would do if it was used for its intended purpose. Rubirules used this ability to contain Kajet and the Dragon Bug's data after they canceled each other out. He can also use both the sealed virus and antivirus to his advantage. For example:
*'''Antivirus Flame''': Used in Episode 15, during the fight with Gamecrazed. Sends out a burst of flame to damage the opponent. Can be used in succession.
*'''Virus Wave''': Used in Episode 15, during the fight with Gamecrazed. Sends out a wave of energy to disrupt the opponent. Can be used in succession.
*'''Antivirus Fusion''': In the climactic fight at the end of Season 2, Rubirules jams the sealed antivirus into the core on his body, powering himself up greatly and giving him access to two new abilities.
===Post-Antivirus Fusion===
When combining the Antivirus crystal with his own character model, Rubirules can transform into a massive golem-like creature with immense strength. His weakness lies in the floating core in the middle of his body, where the sealed antivirus is located. In this form Rubirules has four floating appendages with different weapons that can be used to attack and overwhelm the user. The core can also fire off powerful blasts of pure antivirus energy, either as single, large shots or a huge beam. When he transforms back into his default form while in this state, his normal mirror-like abdomen is replaced with the Gem Prison containing the Antivirus.
*'''Mirror Body Plus''': An upgraded version of Ruby's unique Mirror Body technique. Ruby now transforms into a discolored copy of a player in TOME, rather than a perfect copy. He gains much stronger use of their abilities, and can charge his attacks with energy from the antivirus. He also demonstrates the ability to send out a miniature version of the Dragon Bug, capable of eating data. As Anti-Alpha, Rubirules gains access to all of Alpha's normal abilities, as well as all of the powers of the Antivirus. The Dragon Bug head he can utilize while in this form mirrors the Kajet Arm Alpha gains as Virus Fusion Alpha. Presumably, Rubirules could also imitate other character models while fused with the Antivirus to similarly create an imperfect copy, but this is never shown.
==Trivia==
*Rubirules' design and typeface seem to be inspired by that of old-fashioned comic books (which work their way into his job as a graphic designer).
*In addition, Rubirules' color scheme (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Dark Purple) is nearly identical to the CYMK color set used in printer ink (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black) which is a further reference to his motif of Graphic Arts.
*During Rubirules' fight with [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], he transforms into Nylocke and makes a dialogue reference to the infamous scene in Star Wars: Episode 5, when Darth Vader reveals his identity to Luke.
:'''Rubirules''': It means you could say, Nylocke, that, in a way...I am your father!
:'''Nylocke''': No! That's impossible!
:'''Rubirules''': Doest ye olde internet search! You know it to be true!
:'''Nylocke''': Never!
*Despite his ability to use any character model in the game, Rubirules used [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]'s season 1 model in his fight against Nylocke instead of Zetto's season 2 model. This was likely because he was the person pulling the strings behind Zetto and Kizuna's operation and did not want to jeopardize it by implying Zetto was still active.
*Rubirules's design was originally going to resemble the appearance of his Statue in the ;Sanctuary region, and feature arms made up of several segmented jewels.
*As a result of this, Rubirules's final form was also going to be different, with his arms becoming two Dragon Bug heads and his body being surrounded by the Broken pieces of the jewels on his body. This form was going to be named "Graphix" (which was also an idea for Rubirules's name in general), however, the idea was scrapped along with his original design, and replaced with the beast that fights Virus Fusion Alpha in Episode 15.

Rubirules is Netking Number 4 of TOME and is the hidden main antagonist of the series. He was in charge of the graphic design for all of TOME and created the character customization system. He is also the one whose approval is needed for each character created in the game, by his own statement in Episode 12. His only power is the ability to transform into any character in the game and use their respective powers.
It is revealed in the series finale, [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], that he created [[D-Buggers.org]] in order to seek out hackers to recover the [[Forbidden Power]]. Though he attempts and succeeds to fool others, most notably [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]], into believing that he acts for the greater good, he is tragically driven by ambition and eagerness for fame.
==Biography==
===Pre-Season 1===
In the year 2020, seven computer programmers (from the company known as [[Netking Software]]) were hired by [[Plan.Net]] to create the first ever fully virtual-reality video game, of whom Rubirules was one. Although Rubirules served as the graphic and character designer for the game, he had an inflated sense of self-worth right from the get-go and was primarily interested in the possibility of going down in history as opposed to creating something special, although he kept this sentiment hidden from the other Netkings. Rubirules also had a fondness for retro fantasy games and RPGs, in addition to comic books and other visual mediums, which inspired him during the game's development.
During the development of the game, the [[Netkings]] discovered that they had accidentally created a fully sentient Artificial Intelligence, whom was affectionately dubbed "[[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]]". Rubirules was responsible for designing SOFDTI's character model (which was given a simple, human-like appearance to allow for better communication). Although Rubirules felt that the best way to utilize SOFDTI would be to contact the government and revolutionize the world's technology using her coding, his idea was quickly shot down by the other Netkings, who loved SOFDTI like a daughter and did not want to see her misused or taken away from them. Rubirules was irritated by this, believing that treating a computer program as a living thing was asinine, but kept quiet and allowed the game to resume development as was intended.
Rubirules' negative emotions, along with [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]]'s and (to a lesser extent) the other Netkings', eventually began to be absorbed by SOFDTI, growing into a virus within her. At some point, Rubirules designed a character named "The Shadowguard Beast", who was meant to be the game's first boss - however, it accidentally absorbed the virus SOFDTI was carrying within her, becoming a monstrosity named Kajet, which had the ability to hurt people in real life by turning data into negative human thought and tricking the brain's functions into experiencing pain. [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] was its first victim, prompting immediate panic from the developers. Although Rubirules and the other Netkings attempted to keep it contained, only SOFDTI was able to ultimately seal it away using an antivirus code directly translating positive emotions into code. The virus, incapable of such a transformation, and only able to act the other way around, stayed dormant until [[Alpha (TOME)|a victim]] came close enough for him to latch on.
Netking Software was forced to make a deal with the government as a result of this incident. Although SOFDTI was allowed to continue to survive, she was forced into a dormant state in which she could become the game's engine, and the Netkings were forced to keep her existence a secret to avoid risking harm to players. The game, which was eventually released on February 20th, 2020, was named in honor of SOFDTI- as she was able to process every emotion of every human being plugged into the game, she effectively had become a living [[TOME]]. Embittered by this decision, Rubirules secretly began developing his own antivirus code named the "[[Dragon Bug]]", hoping to use it to control the virus and, by extension, SOFDTI, whom he intended to use to gain fame and fortune for himself, though pretending to only care for the well-being of everyone around him.
At some point, Rubirules visited a high school in Burbank, California, where he met [[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]], and took him in as his protegé. Rubirules and Neomutant programmed the "head" of the Dragon Bug, keeping it a secret by hiding it inside a "Dragon Man" character model and presenting it as the prize for being the 1,111,111th registered player of TOME (a contest which was won by [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]). Rubirules also convinced [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]] to help him find the virus, claiming that it needed to be found and stopped before it could hurt anyone else. Kizuna and Zetto began hiring various contractors to carry out specific tasks within TOME, resulting in the formation of the hacker organization [[D-Buggers.org]], while Rubirules and Neomutant continued to work on their vaccination program. During this time, Rubirules continued to pretend to care about SOFDTI, and continued to act as Netking #4 and the game's character creation system manager. However, Rubirules slowly became more and more obsessed with his goal, becoming willing to hurt actual people in the pursuit of his ambition.
===Season 2===
As Zetto and Kizuna continued to work on the Dragon Bug and hired contractors to find the virus for him, Rubirules worked with Neomutant to create the "Purple Flame", the virus's power source. Drawing energy from Neomutant's unrequited "love" for Flamegirl, the Dragon Bug was able to emulate SOFDTI's code and could successfully function as an antivirus capable of damaging Kajet. However, Neomutant's emotions, while still technically positive, were founded on obsessive and selfish desires (as opposed to the Netkings' selfless parental love for SOFDTI), resulting in the Purple Flame becoming flawed and unstable. Neomutant convinced Rubirules to tell Zetto and Kizuna to give the Purple Flame to Flamegirl upon its completion, knowing full well it could put her in danger, but hiding it from Rubirules.
The Antivirus worked as a successful counter to the Virus after it resurfaced by latching itself onto [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]'s subconscious, this time, due to Alpha and Flamegirl's genuine feelings for each other. However, it remained secretly dangerous were it ever to be separated from Flamegirl, and had the potential to consume her if it was left unchecked.

When no one took him up on his offer, Rubirules travelled towards [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (Series Game)|TOME]]'s core on his own, knowing he would find [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]] there. Upon reaching the core, however, Rubirules was approached by [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]], who revealed himself to be SOFDTI's "shadow" - a character model created to help defeat the [[D-Buggers.org|malicious players]] hired to tear apart TOME and seek out the [[Forbidden Power]].
After defeating Gamecrazed with the Virus, however, [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]], [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]], and [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] appeared to try and stop him, infuriating Rubirules to the point where he declared to not care even if [[Flamegirl]] happened to be in actual danger, because changing the world mattered more.

*'''[[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]''': Zetto had agreed with Rubirules in the past after he had suffered immense pain from Kajet and joined him in his quest to find SOFDTI. He persuaded Zetto to join D-Buggers and become the Co-Administrator of the organization, gaining his trust and using his trauma and insecurities against him. The two were rarely in direct contact and Zetto was let relatively free to battle and even create a separate account, as long as his mission was progressing. He considers both him and Kizuna "ignorant thumbsuckers", and especially thinks of the emotionally unstable Zetto as a "failure".

However, Neomutant ended up being the one to manipulate him, as to the very end, Rubirules had no idea that Flamegirl would be endangered by the Dragon Bug.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Rubirules got annoyed and frustrated with Alpha as he was the only one who constantly opposed him and tried to stop him from getting to SOFDTI. Because Rubi didn't care that Stephanie could've been dead, this only infuriated Alpha.
*'''[[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]''': Once Zetto found out what Rubi wanted to do with both the virus and the vaccination, he got furious as he saw his true intention on making millions and allowing Flamegirl to possibly die made Zetto fight against him after he was betrayed by him. Rubirules had delt with Zetto the moment he fought him and did it without second thoughts.
*'''[[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]]''': Once Kizuna found out what Rubirules was truly bent on doing, she got mad and did whatever it took to stop him from getting SOFDTI and allowing Flamey to essentially die just to make money. RUbi fought and beat her quickly and without remorse.
*'''[[Netkings]]''': Rubirules had always been at odds with the other Netkings over their views of SOFDTI since they used her for a video game which disgusted Rubirules who wanted to use her for greater means. As a result, he looked down on the other Netkings for viewing SOFDTI as a living being and betrayed them without second thoughts.
*'''[[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]]''': Rubirules saw SODFTI as an artificial intelligence and coding and looked at her as that while the other Netkings treated her as their child since they created sentient life. He had been obsessed with tracking her down and finding her and thus formed D-Buggers in order to do that. Rubirules wanted to use SOFDTI as a source of technological gain and profit for technological revolution and get rich.
Gamecrazed: Rubirules only met GC once but he was the first one to discover that GC was apart of SOFDTI. He fought Gamecrazed and eventually faced Alpha, Zetto, and Kizuna shortly after.
==Abilities==
===As Himself===
*'''Mirror Body''': Within a few seconds, Rubirules can encase himself in crystal and come back out as the character of his choosing. He gains a character's appearance and abilities, and there doesn't seem to be a clear restriction as to who he can't copy. His performance while copying a certain character is only limited by his own combat ability, which is systematically more limited than the character he imitates, as he can be anyone, but doesn't know any one character as well. Rubirules' main weakness is that he can be easily hit while he's transforming into someone else, as the crystals that surround him are not indestructible.
*'''Gem Prison''': Rubirules creates one or two floating, diamond-shaped barriers to seal and contain raw data. As this ability has only ever been used to contain data that was not a regular part of the game, it is unknown what this ability would do if it was used for its intended purpose. Rubirules used this ability to contain Kajet and the Dragon Bug's data after they canceled each other out. He can also use both the sealed virus and antivirus to his advantage. For example:
*'''Antivirus Flame''': Used in Episode 15, during the fight with Gamecrazed. Sends out a burst of flame to damage the opponent. Can be used in succession.
*'''Virus Wave''': Used in Episode 15, during the fight with Gamecrazed. Sends out a wave of energy to disrupt the opponent. Can be used in succession.
*'''Antivirus Fusion''': In the climactic fight at the end of Season 2, Rubirules jams the sealed antivirus into the core on his body, powering himself up greatly and giving him access to two new abilities.
===Post-Antivirus Fusion===
When combining the Antivirus crystal with his own character model, Rubirules can transform into a massive golem-like creature with immense strength. His weakness lies in the floating core in the middle of his body, where the sealed antivirus is located. In this form Rubirules has four floating appendages with different weapons that can be used to attack and overwhelm the user. The core can also fire off powerful blasts of pure antivirus energy, either as single, large shots or a huge beam. When he transforms back into his default form while in this state, his normal mirror-like abdomen is replaced with the Gem Prison containing the Antivirus.
*'''Mirror Body Plus''': An upgraded version of Ruby's unique Mirror Body technique. Ruby now transforms into a discolored copy of a player in TOME, rather than a perfect copy. He gains much stronger use of their abilities, and can charge his attacks with energy from the antivirus. He also demonstrates the ability to send out a miniature version of the Dragon Bug, capable of eating data. As Anti-Alpha, Rubirules gains access to all of Alpha's normal abilities, as well as all of the powers of the Antivirus. The Dragon Bug head he can utilize while in this form mirrors the Kajet Arm Alpha gains as Virus Fusion Alpha. Presumably, Rubirules could also imitate other character models while fused with the Antivirus to similarly create an imperfect copy, but this is never shown.
==Trivia==
*Rubirules' design and typeface seem to be inspired by that of old-fashioned comic books (which work their way into his job as a graphic designer).
*In addition, Rubirules' color scheme (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Dark Purple) is nearly identical to the CYMK color set used in printer ink (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black) which is a further reference to his motif of Graphic Arts.
*During Rubirules' fight with [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], he transforms into Nylocke and makes a dialogue reference to the infamous scene in Star Wars: Episode 5, when Darth Vader reveals his identity to Luke.
:'''Rubirules''': It means you could say, Nylocke, that, in a way...I am your father!
:'''Nylocke''': No! That's impossible!
:'''Rubirules''': Doest ye olde internet search! You know it to be true!
:'''Nylocke''': Never!
*Despite his ability to use any character model in the game, Rubirules used [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]'s season 1 model in his fight against Nylocke instead of Zetto's season 2 model. This was likely because he was the person pulling the strings behind Zetto and Kizuna's operation and did not want to jeopardize it by implying Zetto was still active.
*Rubirules's design was originally going to resemble the appearance of his Statue in the ;Sanctuary region, and feature arms made up of several segmented jewels.
*As a result of this, Rubirules's final form was also going to be different, with his arms becoming two Dragon Bug heads and his body being surrounded by the Broken pieces of the jewels on his body. This form was going to be named "Graphix" (which was also an idea for Rubirules's name in general), however, the idea was scrapped along with his original design, and replaced with the beast that fights Virus Fusion Alpha in Episode 15.

'''Kirbopher''', sometimes shortened to "Kirb," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Swordsman]] class with an Enchanted Sword. He is later revealed to be an alternate character account of [[Zetto]], created solely for the fun of the game. Cynical and short-tempered, his character is based on that of the series creator, who shares the same username. Many people mispronounce his name, whether it be in joke or misunderstanding. As of the final episode of season 2, it's implied that 'Kirbopher' is no longer in use.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
[[File:Kirb.jpg|thumb|left|185px|Kirb preparing to battle Alpha]]
Kirbopher first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|episode 1]], looking down from a cliff as [[Alpha]] logs in. He challenges him to a battle and promptly loses. Kirbopher and Alpha then meet up with the rest of the gang, who are gearing up to go fight a [[Rockoon|couple o]][[Doubling|f hackers]] that have been terrorizing Lavendera.
Kirbopher refuses to join them, as he wants to play "the fun freakin' part of the game." He heads off into the woods to fight a few players, but ends up getting ganged up on. He fortunately runs into [[Flamegirl]] and Alpha, who reluctantly help him fend off the attackers before leaving to fight the hackers. Kirbopher appears at the end of the episode, slashing Rockoon in half as he attempts an escape. When Alpha doesn't notice his entrance, he goes berserk and initiates a battle.
[[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]] begins with Kirb logging into the game, looking for a round of late-night battles in ;Lavendera. He then runs into [[Sniperwheel]], who is ready for one last battle before logging off for the day. Kirbopher narrowly defeats him, and is about to challenge him to another match, when he sees [[Gamecrazed]] leaving the crowd.
He promptly follows him. Along the way, Nylocke joins him, and together they follow Gamecrazed to a mysterious mansion that is supposed to be off-limits. Gamecrazed enters the mansion, with the duo following him. Eventually, they lose track of him and run into [[Asterob]], who is working on completing the Mansion's graphics before it opens. Suddenly, all three of them are attacked by [[Splat]], who incapacitates Nylocke and Kirbopher before demanding Asterob's shield.
Gamecrazed appears and defends Asterob, ultimately defeating Splat. After exiting the mansion, Gamecrazed asks Nylocke and Kirbopher why they were following him. Kirbopher explains that they know almost nothing about Gamecrazed, but admits that following him probably was a dumb idea and he forgives him.
Kirbopher reappears in [[Fraggedquest|episode 4]], joining the rest of the gang on a quest to build and defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol]]. Kirbopher is chosen to find the idol's head at the edge of ;Lavendera, which he reluctantly agrees to do. He quickly finds it, but runs into Rockoon on his way back, who is not too happy about the outcome of their previous encounter. He steals the idol's head and runs off, but accidentally trips and breaks part of its ear. Kirbopher loses him, but does find the head and hurries back to the others, who have found their pieces. They assemble the idol, noting that part of its ear seems to be missing, and then wait in ;Lavendera for the moon to rise.
During the interim, the group discusses hanging out in real life, with Kirbopher being as cynical about the whole idea as ever. When the moon rises, the Shadow Guard Idol comes to life, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the monster, bonding with it and knocking Alpha out of the arena. Kirbopher and the gang's attacks have no effect until Alpha reappears and reunites the piece of the ear with Rockoon, making him vulnerable. Kirbopher uses his wind powers to help defeat Rockoon, before threatening to chop him into pieces again. Rockoon flees, and Kirbopher complains about the lack of reward for completing a hacked quest.
In [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]], Kirbopher first appears training with the others for the Gemini Tournament. He initiates a training round with Alpha, giving him pointers on how to fight with the most energy. When [[Flamegirl]] compliments Alpha on his technique, Kirbopher starts to argue with her about Alpha's friendship, insulting her, angering Alpha, and causing much discomfort for the rest of the group. Suddenly, [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]] appears and knocks Kirbopher away, before using her Sonic Screech ability to bring out the [[Forbidden Power]] inside Alpha. When Alpha turns into his demon form and destroys Tigerlilly, Kirbopher thinks that Alpha is ready for a fight and challenges him. Although they fight evenly for a good while, Kirbopher tells Alpha to show him "the real deal," and Alpha responds by attacking Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power, severely injuring him and defeating him. He is not seen for the rest of the episode.
Kirbopher reappears briefly in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], talking to Gamecrazed in ;Mechcity. When Nylocke arrives, he shows surprise at seeing Kirbopher back in the game, as he had been gone for two days. Kirbopher asks Nylocke to give him some advice. He had wanted to ask Alpha to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament, but after what he said in episode 5, he isn't sure how Alpha will react to him. Nylocke freezes, as this serious question is not something he wants to experience while playing the game. He dodges around the question, giving a vague answer about choosing the right path in friendship.
Kirbopher sighs and says he should probably just wait to talk with Alpha and Flamegirl, and Nylocke enthusiastically agrees with him. Kirbopher then asks if Nylocke would be his partner, but Nylocke also nervously dodges that question and tells Kirbopher to continue training until his "destined brother-in-arms" reveals himself. Disappointed, Kirbopher logs off, saying that he might stay away from the game for a little while longer.
Kirbopher finally logs back in [[Infectuation|Episode 7]], where he is determined to finally talk with Flamegirl and Alpha about the incident in episode 5. Unfortunately, he gets held up by [[Archy]], a rabid fan who has been following Kirbopher. Although Kirbopher repeatedly shuns him, Archy keeps attempting to ask Kirbopher to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament.
These interruptions prevent Kirbopher from getting to Alpha before he is possessed, and thus he shows up just as Flamegirl uses the anti-virus to stabilize Alpha. Misreading the situation, he meets up with them later outside the Balanstadium gates in ;Mechcity, just after Alpha and Flamegirl sign up as a team for the Gemini Tournament. Internally crushed, Kirbopher laughs it off and states that it's better this way, as he can now defeat Alpha in front of the entire world. As he dejectedly walks away, Archy reappears, and Kirbopher grudgingly accepts him as his partner.
Not getting Alpha as his partner has drastically upset his plans, so during the Gemini Tournament, Kirbopher acts much more serious and surly than normal.
In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], Kirbopher faces [[Skeight]] and Rockoon (under the guise of "Raccoon") in the first round. Archy is quickly defeated, and Rockoon disposes of Skeight at his earliest chance. Leaving the two of them alone, Rockoon attempts to defeat Kirbopher with his aptly-named "Kirb Stomp," but is impaled on Kirbopher's sword, leaving Kirbopher the victor.
When he sees Alpha and Flamegirl win their next round, he states that he is "not having a good time," but does not elaborate on what is irking him. Alpha tries to talk to him and warn him about Zetto, but Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's just wasting his time and that he's going to end this as soon as possible. In his next match, against Zetto and [[Kizuna]], he simply walks into the arena and raises his arms, allowing Zetto to destroy him instantly. He is not seen for the rest of the tournament.
Kirbopher appears briefly during the credits sequence of [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], sitting in ;Lavendera with a grieved look on his face.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Kirbopher first appears in the forest of ;Lavendera with Gamecrazed, gearing himself up to try and repair his relationship with Alpha and Flamegirl. When they do arrive, he congratulates them on their performance in the tournament, but before he can try to ask for their friendship, a large group of players assaults them, aiming for Alpha. Although the group is defeated, Alpha begins to lament that he is sick and tired of the Forbidden Power and just wants to be rid of it forever. With a guilty look, Kirbopher slips away and heads to the ;Mechcity docks, where he disconnects from the game and logs into TOME's moon as Zetto. This was the official revelation that Kirbopher is, in fact, an alternate account for Zetto. Kirbopher only reappears as himself at the end of the episode, standing in front of the crater in the Balanstadium where Zetto had been defeated, with a tired look on his face. Gamecrazed is there with him, telling him, "It's over."
===Season 2===
Kirbopher returns in [[Year One|Episode 11]], back to his usual cynical self. He is first seen walking towards ;Sanctuary from ;Mechcity, when he is challenged by Alpha. Victorious as usual, Alpha invites him to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher does indeed show up, and is present, along with Nylocke, when Gamecrazed is selected for the Challenge of the Netkings quest.
When Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join Gamecrazed's team, Kirbopher nearly refuses, but then caves in when the rest of the group insists that he join the team, "just like old times," as Alpha puts it. He then joins the gang the next day at the Netking statues, where he and the other four are taken up to HOME. He isn't fazed by the somewhat unexpected look of the first room and encourages the others to get going.
When [[Execk]] appears, Kirbopher taunts him, causing Execk to freeze him in a block of ice. Flamegirl thaws him out only after Alpha defeats Execk, stating he "needed the time out." Alpha says that Kirbopher helped him by revealing some of Execk's powers before the match, to which Kirbopher replies that he completely meant to do that. When a portal appears to the next room, Kirbopher follows Nylocke, telling him to slow down. In the next room, a large crystal cavern, Alpha says that something feels different about this area, but Kirbopher counters that it's probably just the Netking putting on a show. A giant crystal then rises out of the ground and shatters, revealing what appears to be Zetto, which absolutely shocks Kirbopher.
[[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] picks up right where Episode 11 left off. "Zetto" begins bragging in a very over-the-top, dramatic way, before revealing himself to be [[Rubirules]] in disguise. Kirbopher is incredibly weirded out by the experience, and almost starts the fight with Rubirules. Nylocke takes his place instead, saying that Rubirules' appearance as Zetto has made the battle personal. Nylocke eventually defeats Rubirules, and the group heads into the next area through another portal.
This area seems to be a temple in the clouds, and Kirbopher once again reminds the gang that the area design means nothing. [[Kindarspirit]] then appears and greets the group using her system voice. Kirbopher tells her that she doesn't need to be in character around them and that they know it's just a game. With that said, Kindarspirit reverts to her true personality and goes crazy over how cute Kirbopher is, grabbing him and hugging him. She then traps him in a cloud and sends him up to the ceiling. Flamegirl offers to "save" Kirbopher and defeats Kindarspirit. Kirbopher is freed, now very angry at his lack of battles, and the group proceeds to the next area. Before fighting the next Netking, the group discusses what their prize should be if they win.
Alpha suggests that they should set up some sort of meet-and-greet with the creators, and Kirbopher surprisingly agrees to the idea. [[Bitshrum]] then appears and challenges one of them to topple him from his throne. As Gamecrazed will fight the last Netking, Kirbopher must fight Bitshrum. Kirbopher is none too happy that he has to fight "the mushroom guy," and this is only made worse as Nylocke begins describing the glorious battle between a squire and a king. At this, Kirbopher loses his cool and charges Bitshrum, screaming that he's not a squire and he's not an imp. He carves through Bitshrum's box powers and defeats him, Super Mario Bros. style. From atop the throne, Kirbopher screams that he is the greatest player in TOME, better than any of the Netkings. After a bit of coaxing, he hops down from the throne. When the next portal opens, Nylocke allows Kirbopher to go before him, calling him "Your Majesty." Webmaster appears on the other side, and after a fierce battle, Gamecrazed defeats him.
After the group is congratulated by the Netkings, Zetto and Kizuna are revealed to be former Netkings themselves. Kirbopher notices that Alpha starts getting worked up when this is mentioned and tries to stop him before he says anything. Alpha ignores him and asks the Netkings about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Kirbopher states that the group isn't obligated to keep anything the Netkings say secret. The Netkings refuse to reveal anything when they see the Power approaching HOME and forcefully log the players out.
In Episode 13, Alpha confronts Kirbopher at a park in ;Mechcity to request his help for a mission to infiltrate D-Buggers. Kirbopher states that he's not going and snaps at Alpha, telling him he needs to stop trying to play the hero and just play the game for what it is. Alpha says he has to do this, in which Kirb remarks that he's crazy. They both part ways afterward and Kirb isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
In [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto logs back in as Kirb after being defeated by the malfunctioning Dragon Bug, having left him still in the game. He talks if he can't stop the Dragon Bug while in his current form, he adds that he at least tried to destroy the Forbidden Power, [[Kajet]]. Kirb calls the monster's attention before he attacks. Kirb puts up a good fight against the virus, but his sword is soon absorbed into the dragon and he begins to get crushed in its fist. When the Dragon Bug arrives from the moon, Kajet flings Kirb's damaged model into Sanctuary, where Alpha finds him unstable and unconscious.
==Personality==
Kirbopher aims to enjoy himself in TOME, choosing not to get involved in 'drama' that he considers pointless. He's shown to be very hyperactive, short-tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied by his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10. Though he's snarky and sarcastic towards his friends, and can get annoyed with them sometimes (especially Nylocke), he is shown to care deeply about them, and has a sensitive side that he seems to prefer not to show.
Throughout the series, he is shown to have a tendency of taking his anger/frustrations out on other people. From Episode 1, he decides to defeat Rockoon, despite the other already running away, out of frustration that the hacker isn't following his (Zetto's) orders.
It's also implied that Kirbopher has issues controlling his jealousy. In Episode 5, he's clearly envious of the newfound attention that Alpha receives following his defeat of the hackers, responding poorly to the compliments Flamegirl gives the other. He is also jealous of the attention that Alpha gives her. In the fact bubble for Episode 5, it's stated that he is "very attached" to Alpha as a friend<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlbwGkbWLg</ref>, and within the episode, he insults Flamegirl her by calling her a cougar, seemingly implying that he wants her to back off of the other.
As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, offering up the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. Though he probably does wish could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in [[Plan Z|Short #7]] that the 'Kirbopher' account was created to as an escape from his search for the Forbidden Power, and to enjoy TOME for how it should've been, just hanging out with his friends.
He has a tendency to talk to himself.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
[[File:Kirb_with_friends.jpg|thumb|left|188px|Kirbopher challenges Alpha to another match.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Kirbopher and Alpha are very good friends, and seem to have known each other for quite a while. Kirbopher sees Alpha as a friendly rival to test his skills against, though sometimes he gets jealous of the amount of attention Alpha gets. In the latter half of season 1, however, they become rather distant from each other ever since Alpha unintentionally hurt him with the Forbidden Power in episode 5. After an argument with Flamegirl, Kirbopher feels bad for how he acted and wants to apologize. In Infectuation, Alpha is relieved that Kirbopher is all right, but Kirbopher gets upset when Alpha says that Flamegirl is his partner for the Gemini Tournament as he thought his plan would've gone smoother. Later on in the season, he seem to be even more distant from the group because of the circumstances with the Forbidden Power.<br /><br />Fortunately, by the events of the second season, Alpha has moved on from the Gemini Tournament conflicts, and insists that Kirbopher join the group on the Challenge of the Netkings quest. Things are back to normal until Episode 13, where Kirb and Alpha's conflicting goals and views cause them to separate once again.
[[File:Kirb_with_nylocke.jpg|thumb|right|188px|Kirb with Nylocke in the mansion.]]
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Although Nylocke and Kirbopher tend to get along with each other pretty well, Nylocke is the one who Kirbopher shows aggravation at the most out of anyone else. However, when Kirbopher is feeling upset in episode 6, he immediately goes to Nylocke for help, even though Nylocke is unable to give him a straight answer. Kirbopher even considered asking Nylocke to be his partner if his plan didn't turn out as he hoped.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': Kirbopher and Flamegirl are good friends but before he seemed to generally dislike Flamegirl. There are times where he insults her about her feelings for Alpha, and because of that they often get into fights and arguments with each other. They disagree on several things, such as whether or not their time in TOME should be spent fighting hackers instead of playing the game like normal. In season 2 however, their relationship has gotten better but they still tease each other in a more playful manner.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Due to his quiet nature, Gamecrazed has not had much interaction with Kirbopher. In episode 2, Kirbopher and Nylocke attempt to tail Gamecrazed in order to learn more about him. The attempt is foiled, however, when Splat attacks the mansion. Gamecrazed was also the first person Kirbopher talks to after his fallout with Alpha and Flamegirl, and it is hinted that Gamecrazed may be privy to Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]].
*'''[[Archy]]''': Kirbopher tolerates Archy at best and outright insults him at worst. Although not stated, it is implied that Archy has been following him for quite some time, causing Kirbopher to become rather annoyed when he appears. Archy becomes his Gemini partner only because Kirbopher's other choices (Alpha and Nylocke) were taken.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher is an alternative account of Zetto. It was through Kirbopher that Zetto was able to monitor Alpha's condition. There are several occasions where Kirbopher logs in both as Zetto and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposely let Kirbopher take Zetto's Breaker Beam in order to continue through the Gemini Tournament as Zetto; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually log himself in as Zetto to confront Alpha and the [[Forbidden Power]]. After a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control, his body badly damaged.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Although Kirbopher does not actively fight the hackers, his accidental encounter with Rockoon has caused the two to have a mutual aversion to each other. However, in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], he seems to be sympathetic towards Rockoon after he witnesses Rockoon's fallout with [[Skeight]]. This may be due to him seeing the kind of trouble that occurs when a person uses two characters at the same time without admitting they are the same person.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Spin Slash''': An aerial cutting attack in which the user spins rapidly into a powerful cut. This technique can be turned into a Shockwave upon finishing.
*'''Ice Knives''': A projectile attack where a swarm of sharp icicles spread out from a slash of the user’s weapon.
*'''Dust Tornado''': A slow, but forceful projectile attack that can entrap the opponent and allows for a swift follow-up combo.
*'''Shockwave''': A powerful attack that travels along the ground and trips up the opponent upon impact.

==Trivia==
*Kirbopher and TOME in general make allusions to the number "11" in some shape or form.
**The release date for [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]] was 11-11-11, and the end of the original About TOME trailer showed Kirbopher running up and slicing the date in half.
**In the original ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Kirbopher was named "Kirbopher15". 15 is 1111 in binary.
**In Episode 10, the time when Alpha arrives at Balanstadium to meet Zetto is 11:11:11.
**Episode 11 shows Kirbopher's player ID is 001-501-111.
*During Episode 11 of ''TV TOME Adventures'', in which [https://kirbopher15.deviantart.com/art/Tsuzuku-14427657 Tsuzuku] (who would become [[Tsuzuku]] in TOME) would repeatedly call Kirbopher15 "Kirbofour15".
**This was also referenced in the [[April Fools Special]] short, in which a spoofed version of Kirbopher15 appears, named Kirbo4.
* His design seems to be loosely inspired by [[w:c:zelda:Link|Link]] from ''[[w:c:zelda:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
*Chris Niosi, along with Alpha's voice actor Blake Swift, sings TOME's first season main theme ("[[Battle On!]]").
*Kirbopher's height is somewhat inconsistent. He is clearly the shortest of the others, but in some scenes, he stands more than a foot shorter than his friends, and in other shots he is almost as tall as Alpha or Flamegirl.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in Episode 10 and Plan Z, clues were dropped throughout The Gemini Tournament arc and Episode 10 to indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person.
**Both Zetto and Kirbopher were interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher stood immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
**With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
** Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines are both, "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say, "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!"
**As Webmaster stated at the end of Episode 10, players who left the game without logging off remained in the game with their eyes turned grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after losing to Alpha after being controlled by the Forbidden Power, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Another clue exclusive to the "Kirbopher" account is in Episode 7 he hears Demon Alpha's scream and panics a bit, also telling Archy to get lost, implying that he already knows about the Forbidden Power.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor, although this was not revealed until Episode 10.
**Also, in Episode 1, during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.

'''Nylocke''', sometimes called "'''Nye'''", is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], a [[Swordsman]] with the power of ice. He is notable as a skilled fighter but also as a role player, who acts as the character his model pictures and almost never breaks this facade, regardless of the current situation. On very few occasions - usually, when he is shaken or feels the need, to be honest with someone - his true personality has broken through. His character model was created by [[Rubirules]] as a prize to the 1,111,111th player to dissimulate the code for the head of the [[Dragon Bug]].
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Nylocke is a role-player, a player who likes to pretend and act like the character that they play as. He has the habit of giving himself special titles; he will jump into the air and shout "Nylocke!" followed by a title relevant to the situation that generally begins with "Master of..." or "Dragon of...". He is good natured, extremely extroverted and very friendly towards any player he meets, going so far as to help complete strangers, such as [[Elescope]] and [[Hyprelynx]]. He is an old friend of [[Gamecrazed]], who was possibly the first user Nylocke met in TOME, and serves as a kind of older brother to [[Flamegirl]]. He tends to call male players "Sir (username)" and female players "Lady (username)," but notably, Nylocke frequently refers to [[Kirbopher]] as "squire" instead. He also frequently pronounces Kirbopher's name incorrectly, though he never means to annoy and eventually comes to correct himself later.
When he is faced with a battle, Nylocke usually acts focused and eager to test his abilities with sportsmanship, and views his opponents as fellow colleagues to have fun with, rather then competitors. When it comes to hackers, however, he displays a strong sense of furious justice, often referring to them as "vile" or "criminals."
In [[Dragon Drama]], it is also revealed that his real life is rough and being in character on TOME is one of the only times he really enjoys himself, which is why he rarely breaks character and prefers to block out anything that doesn't correspond to his idea of fun. This is the first of only a few times in the show that Nylocke breaks character, symbolized by black, reptilian pupils appearing in his eyes.
It is implied that Nylocke has attracted quite a following within the game's community itself due to his over-the-top performance, to the point that several players have deep ties to him. These include [[Serpentine]], a roleplayer who considers himself Nylocke's eternal rival after initially being rejected by him, and [[Demonking]], who was dissuaded from his job as a hacker through Nylocke's persuasion before eventually becoming a roleplayer himself. [[Whyti]] and Hyprelynx seem to admire Nylocke as well, imitating his famous "WHOOSH!" when dashing into a situation.
== Biography ==
===Season 1===
Nylocke first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode]], announcing his entrance to [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Flamegirl]] who have been waiting for him. After [[Alpha]] and [[Kirbopher]] show up at the scene, Nylocke states that he will be heading off to combat the hackers again, and wants to see who will join him. Kirbopher declines, as per usual, and Alpha says he will think about it since there are a few hours before the fighters are going to meet up. After a final warning to Alpha not to be tempted by Flamegirl's "womanly wiles," Nylocke sets off to round up the remaining players who are going to fight. Upon arrival, the players are ambushed by [[Rockoon]] and [[Doubling]] who destroy everyone except Gamecrazed and Nye. Just as they rush in to start fighting, Alpha and Flamegirl arrive, surrounding the hackers. Alpha uses the Forbidden Power to injure the hackers and defeat them. Nylocke lauds Alpha for his brave fighting spirit.
In [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]], Nylocke sneaks up on Kirbopher, who has been tailing Gamecrazed through ;Lavendera. Nylocke admits that he, too, is very curious about Gamecrazed and will follow him as well. Upon reaching the Mansion, Nylocke shows some hesitation upon entering it but follows Kirbopher who rushes in first. The two eventually lose Gamecrazed within the Mansion's walls but stumble upon [[Asterob]], who demands that they leave, as the Mansion is not supposed to be seen by the public yet. In the middle of their conversation, [[Splat]] appears and traps Kirbopher and Nylocke in bubbles of goo and sends them up to the ceiling. Nylocke remains in this position throughout the subsequent quarrel between Splat and Gamecrazed, showing some perverted interest in the way the two fighters wrap around each other. Splat is eventually defeated, and Asterob gives the [[Drain Edge]] to Gamecrazed before pleading for the three to leave. Upon exiting, Nye and Kirb admit that following Gamecrazed to know more about him was probably the wrong idea, but Gamecrazed forgives them both and apologizes for not being more open with them.
Nylocke appears again in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]], viewing Alpha and [[Granda]]'s fight together. He admires Granda's enthusiasm but encourages her to go out and train more, much to her tantrum-filled chagrin. Alpha then receives a message from Flamegirl, asking him and Nye to meet her in ;Mechcity. The two agree and head off to meet her. On the way, Alpha tries to ask Nylocke for some relationship advice, but Nylocke remains his stalwart, Dragon Knight self. Upon arriving, Nylocke notices an explosion as [[Demonking]] begins attacking the city and immediately heads off to defend against him. He teams up with [[Whyti]], and together they use their ice powers to try and defeat him. Soon enough, Demonking asks them to stop fighting and admits that he just needs the money to go back to school. Nylocke admonishes him for using such destructive ways to get another chance at higher learning and offers him a chance to change his ways and become an upstanding player of TOME. Demonking reluctantly accepts and the two become friends. They then arrive at an alleyway just in time to see Alpha and Flamegirl almost having a moment, which they awkwardly interrupt.
Nylocke and company appear in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], preparing to head off on the group quest that they have accepted. Nylocke shows delight at seeing Gamecrazed join them, and recounts how impressed he was at seeing Flamegirl roleplay for the first time. After the details of the quest are recounted to the group, Nylocke and Flamegirl agree to go off in search of the "trial by fire" mentioned by the quest-giver. They arrive at a tree surrounded by five campfires, each representing one of the elements needed to defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol|Shadow Guard Beast]]. Before Nylocke can start to figure out the puzzle, he is tackled by Granda, still sore about her earlier battles. She beats Nylocke mercilessly and stalks off, all while Flamegirl solves the puzzle without so much as a glance at Nylocke's predicament.
Nylocke horrendously violated dragon with split ends, joins Flamegirl, and the two head back to the meeting spot, the idol's torso in hand. Once the others return, the group finds a convenient spot to wait for the moonlight to strike the idol. During this time, the group discusses having a group get-together. It is here where Flamegirl reveals that Nylocke is from England, mentioning that he once logged on drunk and accidentally mentioned his hometown of Knutsford, and Nylocke's comments hint that he may have been recovering from some sort of break-up. However, he declines to join them as he "cannot travel across the virtual plains to Californialand." The idol suddenly activates, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the beast, knocking Alpha out of the arena. The other four desperately try to defeat the boss, with no success until Alpha breaks into the battlegrid using the Forbidden Power. He reunites the beast with a piece of its ear, rendering it vulnerable. The group then uses their combined elemental powers to finish it off. Rockoon flees in the aftermath, and Nylocke celebrates the group's victory with a heartfelt embrace.
===Season 2===
==Abilities==
*'''Cold Steel: '''The user slashes their weapon to send out waves of sharp ice.
*'''Stalagmite Storm: '''The user summons a line of giant stalagmites that rise up from the ground and pierce the opponent's defenses.
*'''White Wind: '''A blizzard attack that pushes back the enemy and freezes them in solid ice when covering them for a certain amount of time.
*'''[[Drain Edge]]:''' An item attached to Nylocke's sword, capable of absorbing enemy attack to be later unleashed in a form of attack. It can be discharged partially for a minor shockwave or can be discharged fully to release a powerful beam. The capacity of the Drain Edge is considerably massive, as seen in [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], where the Drain Edge is capable of absorbing [[Zetto]]'s overcharged Breaker Beam; and in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], where the Drain Edge is shown to be capable of absorbing the entirety of the [[Forbidden Power]]. As of Episode 10, Nylocke tossed his Drain Edge away in hopes of disposing of the Forbidden Power and thus does not possess this item anymore.
==Trivia==
* Unlike the rest of the main cast, Nylocke's real name was never revealed.
* Nylocke's sword is called "Hoarfrost."<ref>https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=987879094605528&set=a.987878677938903</ref>
*Nylocke's ID number is 001-111-111.
**In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], his player number is incorrectly written as "111,111,111th player." His actual ID number was referenced many times in later episodes to correct this mistake.
*In an online poll hosted by Chris Niosi, Nylocke was voted as the character most liked by fans of the show.
*Nylocke was the final owner of the [[Drain Edge]], gaining it from Gamecrazed in Episode 6 before throwing it away at the end of Episode 10.
*Nylocke is likely one of the strongest players in TOME, as he only lost the Gemini Tournament by forfeiting to his [[Zetto|defeated opponent]].
*Nylocke is left-handed.
*Nylocke is tied with Kirbopher for most episode appearances, at 14 out of 15.
**Nylocke also appears in the most shorts, at 4 out of 7. In addition, two shorts, [[Nylocke's Day Off]] and [[The Legend of Nylocke]], are focused almost exclusively on him.
*The ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'' version of Nylocke, named Nailock, was voiced by his real-life inspiration, Colin "NailockGameSlave" Zabielski. He cameoed as the voice of Nylocke in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Nylocke's name comes from a corruption of his original voice actor's name. "Colin," spelled backwards, is "Niloc."
*According to Chris Niosi, the "Muscular Beaver" persona of Daggett Beaver from the Nickelodeon series, ''"The Angry Beavers''", was an influence on Nylocke's web series iteration, even using the characters' known battle cry "WHOOSH!"<ref>https://twitter.com/Kirbopher/status/595081216971317248</ref>

Webmaster is Netking Number 1, the creator and administrator of [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]] and the head of [[Netkings|Netking Software]]. A kind and appreciative character, he usually resides in HOME and watches the game from above. Webmaster is always very proud to see the players of TOME use their creativity to create unique characters, and is equally proud of the amount of support the game has been given.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
Chronologically, Webmaster first appears in [[/FILE:ZERO]] alongside his fellow [[Netkings]] during the development of TOME. He was directly responsible for the creation of [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]], though had little influence on teaching and developing her like the other Netkings did. It was his decision after the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] was created to seal her away in the game's code rather than destroy her.
Webmaster is first mentioned in [[Mansion Midnight]], when [[Asterob (TOME)|Asterob]] mentions that his mansion project was commissioned by Webmaster himself. A stylized portrait of Webmaster can be seen hanging on the back wall of the Mansion before [[Splat (TOME)|Splat]] covers the wall with her slime.
Webmaster's first true appearance is at the beginning of [[Gemini Tournament Yin]], introducing the Gemini Tournament and expressing pride at the teams of players who have fought hard to reach the finals. He then appears in-person at the tournament after [[Dustbunny (TOME)|Dustbunny]] fills the arena with her smoke to lure [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] away, using his Heavenly Light abilities to dissipate the smoke instantly. [[Anneva (TOME)|Anneva]] takes the opportunity to interview Webmaster in the announcers' booth. Webmaster takes special care to not show any preference toward any team in the tournament, instead saying that the team with the best synergy between them will win.
Webmaster remains in the announcers' booth for [[Gemini Tournament Yang]], declining to comment on the final match between [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]], [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]], [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], and [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]. He appears briefly during the awards ceremony, apparently having personally awarded the trophies to Kizuna and Zetto.
Webmaster appears again at the end of [[The Warring Demons]], carrying Zetto's malfunctioning model up to HOME after Zetto's battle with Demon Alpha. He comments on the grayed-out nature of the model's eyes and wonders why he unhooked himself from the game.
===Season 2===
Near the beginning of [[Year One]], Webmaster appears in [[;Sanctuary]] to commemorate the one-year anniversary of TOME, giving a heartfelt speech about how proud he is of all the different and varied characters that the game has allowed the players to produce. He then announces a special "boss rush" quest for one random winner at the gathering: that player may gather up to four other players to take on the Challenge of the Netkings, fighting their way up the ladder of Netkings to see if they can defeat the creators of the game. If they do, the Netkings will reward them with one wish of the players' choice, within reason.
Gamecrazed and his friends inevitably reach the final battle with Webmaster towards the end of [[Secret of the Netkings]]. Gamecrazed is chosen to fight with Webmaster, and after a furious struggle, Gamecrazed emerges victorious. The other Netkings appear and officially introduce themselves to the players. During this time, Webmaster reveals to them that Zetto and Kizuna were unofficial Netkings tasked with testing the game. Before the subject of the reward can be brought up, [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], set off by the mention of Zetto, demands to know who put the Forbidden Power in the game. The Netkings are confused by the question, but before any explanation can be put forward, [[ChaseAce (TOME)|ChaseAce]] messages Webmaster about the mysterious object that is floating towards HOME. Webmaster hurriedly apologizes to Alpha and his team and informs them that he has to log them out for their own safety, which he does.

===Enemies===
==Abilities==
*'''Heaven's Pillar''': The user targets a grounded area and then brings down a powerful beam of light. This is the very same light that logs players in and out of TOME, so he is capable of using it to "force log out" players. He has also shown to be able to use it for teleportation.
*'''Asteroid Rain''': The user summons a series of asteroids that rain down and crushes any opponents within their blast radius.
*'''God Hand''': The user's hands become disconnected and transform into giant palms for wider-range physical attacks. The hands are capable of unleashing a variety of elemental attacks, like wind, electricity, ice, and fire.

**These, in turn, reference the Fire Flower in the Mario series and the variants of the Pirhana Plant enemy that shoot fireballs.
**His design can also be seen as a nod to Split Mushroom, a boss in the Megaman X games. This can be seen with his orange and green color scheme.

Kindarspirit is Netking Number 3 of [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]]. She is the sound designer of the game, as well as the game's system voice. Although very serious and professional while in character, she is, in reality, incredibly bubbly and excitable. Her powers revolve around the use of the weather; she can spawn clouds of lightning and cause rainstorms and tornadoes.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
In the year 2020, seven computer programmers (from the company known as [[Netking Software]]) were hired by [[Plan.Net]] to create the world's first full virtual-reality online experience, of which Kindarspirit was one. Kindarspirit was chosen to be the head of the game's sound department, and therefore became both the system voice and lead composer for the game. Kindarspirit was always interested in "cute" thing, and is implied to have been inspired by games such as Pokémon and Kirby while designing the game.
During the development of the game, the Netkings discovered that they had accidentally created a fully sentient virtual being, which was far beyond the scope of their original idea. Kindarspirit was thrilled when this happened, and decided to name the new artificial intelligence "[[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]]", which became an acronym for "Self-Operating Full-Duplex Technical Intelligence". Kindarspirit first taught SOFDTI how to speak, and although SOFDTI copied her voice at first, she eventually gained a voice of her own. Even early on, Kindarspirit frequently clashed with [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]], who had a very different idea of what SOFDTI should be used for. While Kindarspirit saw SOFDTI as a daughter that needed to be raised as a child, Rubirules saw SOFDTI as a key to a technological revolution. When Rubirules suggested to the other Netkings that the government be contacted, Kindarspirit became very angry, resulting in underlying tension between them that may have contributed to Rubirules' eventual founding of [[D-Buggers.org]].
Kindarspirit was present when SOFDTI spat out the negative emotions she had been absorbing from the Netkings (which were absorbed by True Shadowguard Beast). Kindarspirit defended SOFDTI after Zetto was injured by [[Kajet]], but also got him help when he cried out in pain. Kindarspirit, along with the other Netkings, attempted to seal the Shadowguard Beast away, but only SOFDTI's antivirus code (which was powered by love and the other positive emotions SOFDTI had absorbed) was able to lock it away in a beta region, where it was believed to be gone for good.
Kindarspirit was present when [[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]] consulted [[Giga (TOME)|Agent Giga]] about a possible negotiation that the Netkings could make with the government, to protect people while still keeping SOFDTI alive. It was eventually decided that SOFDTI could be permitted to survive under the guideline that she remained a government kept secret, and the game continued development as was intended. Kindarspirit continued to act as the game's system voice, and when new players logged in, she would politely greet them and invite them into [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]] - the game that had been named after SOFDTI, as it had become a collection of the thoughts, hopes, and dreams of every player logged into the system. At some point, Kindarspirit recorded a guide to the game known as the "[[Traveler's Guide]]", to explain the game's rules to new players and help establish a safer and more fun community within the game.
Kindarspirit was present in HOME after [[The Warring Demons|the incident with Demon Zetto]] and greeted Webmaster as the system voice as an in-joke before laughing and returning to her genuine, kid-like personality. However, Kindarspirit became solemn when she saw Zetto's disconnected character mode and noted that his eyes were grayed out.
===Season 2===
Kindarspirit would later participate in the "[[Secret of the Netkings|Challenge of the Netkings]]" anniversary event (at the suggestion of either [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]] or [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]]), and upon seeing Kirbopher's character model for the first time, she squeed and had a fangirl-y reaction to how adorable it looked. Kindarspirit then jokingly "kidnapped" Kirbopher, and [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] fought her as her Netking Challenge (defeating her by predicting what weather patterns she would use based on the background music that was playing). Kindarspirit then gave Kirbopher back and remarked on how the battle was fun, and that they should play again sometime.
Kindarspirit later formally introduced herself as the game's sound designer to all five players who had taken the Challenge but was interrupted when [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] angrily questioned the Netkings about the Forbidden Power's existence. When the virus itself broke free of the [[Drain Edge]], Webmaster logged the contest winners out of HOME, and the five Netkings prepared to attempt to copy SOFDTI's code and seal the Beast away again. Kindarspirit helped evacuate all players out of TOME during this time, and although she attempted to seal the beast away with the other Netkings, she failed. Kajet broke free, sending all of the Netkings flying in the [[;Sanctuary]] region, and allowing Rubirules's master plan to continue (as the [[Dragon Bug]] had been activated as well).
When Kajet and the Dragon Bug were both destroyed in the ensuing battle, Kindarspirit, Webmaster, [[Bitshrum (TOME)|Bitshrum]], and Execk showed up to assess the damage, only to find that Rubirules had revealed himself (and SOFDTI's existence) to Alpha. When Zetto and Kizuna angrily chastised Rubirules for putting both SOFDTI and Flamegirls' lives in danger, Kindarspirit became shocked and stayed with the other Netkings when Rubirules traveled to the game's core to finish his mission. After Alpha, Zetto, and Kizuna successfully defeated him, Rubirules reappeared to the other Netkings, telling them that they should listen to him, causing Kindarspirit to become enraged. Kindarspirit watched as Rubirules was taken into police custody, and was struck with joy when SOFDTI revealed that she was all right, in a large form resembling [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]. Kindarspirit's status after this is unknown, however, it is likely that she continued to make games with Netking Software and served as the game's system voice for as long as it remained active. It is also likely she continued to act as a motherly figure to SOFDTI.
==Personality==
Kindarspirit is very childlike and carefree, nearly always wearing a smile on her face. Although she has a tendency to act excitedly and is easily distracted by cute and nerdy things, she is actually very intelligent and is an excellent computer programmer and sound designer. Kindarspirit is capable of behaving professionally when it is necessary (such as when she is acting as the game's system voice), but her true personality is hyperactive and fun-loving. Despite this, Kindarspirit is also very motherly, and is extremely protective of SOFDTI, becoming uncharacteristically angered whenever she is threatened. She is kind and caring, but will take action when the situation calls for it.

===Allies===
===Enemies===
==Abilities==
She battles by changing the weather into massive hail, tornado, and lightning attacks by controlling the fight's background music!
==Trivia==
* Kindarspirit's name and character were inspired by the admin of a Kirby fan website named "Kirby's Rainbow Resort". Kindarspirit's childish nature and fondness for cute things (as well as her weather-related powers) are in reference to this.

Execk (President Execk in the RPG adaption) is the fifth of the five Netkings of TOME. He first appears in [[Year One]], where he acts as the first opponent of the Challenge of the Netkings quest. He is defeated by [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]].
==Appearance==
Execk is a tall, human-like android character wearing a formal suit and tie, clashing with his wild hair and eyes. His left hand can turn into several different weapons, meaning he might be left-handed.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
In [[/FILE:ZERO]], Execk constructs the Battlegrid and teaches [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]] about human nature, saying that combat is necessary to satisfy the human desire for violence. However, in a game, no one gets hurt.
===Season 2===
In [[Secret of the Netkings]], Execk is revealed to be in charge of TOME's battle system. He invented the battlegrid.
==Personality==
==Relationships==
===Allies===
===Enemies===
==Abilities==
*'''Power Hammer''': His arm shifts into a powerful sledgehammer. It has demonstrated to be strong enough to easily smash apart a wooden desk.
*'''Ice Gun''': His arm shifts into an air conditioner to unleash a blast of cold air capable of freezing enemies solid.
*'''Lightning Gun''': His arm shifts into a taser to unleash a shocking bolt of electricity.
*'''Flamethrower''': His arm shifts into a flamethrower to unleash a massive stream of fire. The fire has been shown to be comparable to Alpha's Zeus Rage.
==Trivia==
*Execk is voiced by Jon St. John, who also voices the famous video game characters Duke Nukem and Big the Cat (up until 2004).
**In the TOME precursor series, TvTome Adventures, Execk was voiced by Chris Niosi's father.
*Ironically, even though Execk designed the game's combat system, he serves as the weakest of the five Netkings, outpaced by the character, sound, and graphic designers.
*In the original draft of season 2, the Netkings would have been fought in reverse order than they are in the final script. This makes more sense in terms of Execk's placing and Alpha's choice of opponent, but it doesn't show off Gamecrazed's skill or have as much build-up.
*Mike Pollock's portrayal of Execk in the RPG is in reminiscent of Donald Trump, who was the President of the United States while the game was in production.

'''Asterob''' is a minor character in [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]] who works as a programmer for [[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]]. He is of the [[Fighter]] class with the power of reflection.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
Asterob first appears in [[Mansion Midnight]], during which he is working on completing the Mansion for the Webmaster. [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] and [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] encounter him in the Mansion while trailing [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]], who had entered the Mansion earlier. Asterob timidly demands that they leave, as the Mansion wasn't supposed to be accessed by any players yet. When Kirbopher and Nylocke refuse and start fighting, he reluctantly fights back using a shield that gradually stores up energy before releasing it in a powerful blast (which accidentally breaks a hole in one of the Mansion's walls). Before he could convince the two to leave, [[Splat (TOME)|Splat]] invades the mansion and captures Nylocke and Kirbopher, demanding that Asterob hand over the beta weapons in his possession, which have capabilities similar to his shield. Gamecrazed, who had been hiding elsewhere in the Mansion, then attacks Splat and throws her from the Mansion, before using his abilities to fix the hole in the Mansion's wall. As thanks, Asterob gives him the [[Drain Edge]]. He then pleads for the players to leave the Mansion, which they do.
Asterob briefly appears in [[Fraggedquest]], where he attempts to help [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] and Gamecrazed find the feet of the [[Shadow Guard Idol]].
Asterob next appears during [[Gemini Tournament Yin]] and [[Gemini Tournament Yang]], where he participates in the Gemini Tournament with [[Sniperwheel (TOME)|Sniperwheel]]. The duo face [[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]] and [[Dustbunny (TOME)|Dustbunny]] in the first round, during which Dustbunny fills the arena with smoke, allowing her to take Asterob's shield right from him. She and Neomutant then abandon the arena, allowing Asterob and Sniperwheel to win by forfeit and leaving Asterob without a weapon.
The quarterfinal round in the Gemini tournament, against two unnamed fighters, is won single-handedly by Sniperwheel, leaving Asterob very upset about the loss of his shield. It is just at that instant that the shield is thrown back into the arena by [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]], allowing him to participate in the upcoming semifinal round against Nylocke and Gamecrazed.
At the beginning of the round, Sniperwheel tells Asterob to "let a real man handle this one," which infuriates Asterob. He removes his hat, glasses, and tie, telling Nylocke that "there's only room for one Brit to be at the top!" However, he loses when the recoil from his shield's Drain Beam sends him off the edge of the tournament platform, defeating him instantly.
Asterob appears briefly during the credits sequence of Episode 9, standing atop a building in [[;Mechcity]] in his new outfit.
===Season 2===
Asterob again appears briefly at the beginning of [[The Infiltration Mission]], standing atop the Mansion and looking worriedly at the dark clouds filling the sky.
==Personality==
Asterob comes across as being slightly nervous and wary of other players. He is especially afraid of disappointing the Webmaster, who hired him to program and design certain parts of TOME, such as the Mansion. Despite his nervous tendencies, he's rather nice and friendly towards people he knows he can trust.
He is of English origin, and makes this very clear by using phrases such as "bloody hell" or "crums" when annoyed or distressed.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': When Kirbopher and Nylocke follow Gamecrazed in [[Mansion Midnight]] to learn more about him, they stumble upon the unfinished mansion. Asterob tells them to leave, and engages in combat with them when they refuse to leave. This fight is put to an end by Splat's assault on the mansion.
* '''[[Nylocke (TOME|Nylocke]]''': When Kirbopher and Nylocke follow Gamecrazed in E[[Mansion Midnight]] to learn more about him, they stumble upon the unfinished mansion. Asterob tells them to leave, and engages in combat with them when they refuse to leave. This fight is put to an end by Splat's assault on the mansion.
* '''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': After the mansion is attacked and damaged by Splat, Gamecrazed fights her off and fixes the damage done to the building. To thank him for this, Asterob gives Gamecrazed the [[Drain Edge]], a beta item not yet available to other players.
* '''[[Sniperwheel (TOME)|Sniperwheel]]''': In the Gemini Tournament, Asterob competes with Sniperwheel as his partner. It is unknown how or when the two became partners.
* '''[[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]]''': Asterob works for Webmaster and appears to be his chief graphic designer, as [[ChaseAce (TOME)|ChaseAce]] specifically asks for him in Episode 11 to clean up the mess left by [[Odboll (TOME)|Odboll]] in [[;Sanctuary]].
===Enemies===
==Abilities==
*'''Boomerang Shield''': A projectile attack in which the user throws their shield. It will return to them like a boomerang.
*'''Shove''': A charging attack that can push the opponent back great distances.
*'''Bomball''': Small bombs that can be thrown in succession.
*'''Drain Beam''': A powerful attack that is built up by energy absorbed from enemy attacks, then releases a beam that covers the entire length of the battlefield.
==Trivia==
*Asterob's name is a cross between the words "Asterisk" and "Rob." This is a reference to the original user's name from TvTome Adventures, which was "Rob*"(pronounced as Rob-Star) .
*Asterob's original design was modified to give him a hat and glasses. This was done to make him look more like his voice actor, Lawrence Simpson. Ironically, Asterob removes these items during the semifinal round of the Gemini tournament to show that he refuses to sit back and let someone else fight for him.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit (TOME)|Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]], and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the [[Netking Software|Netkings]] or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In [[Monstrosities]], Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]], under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in [[;Mechcity]], which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During [[Infectuation]], a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword ([[Drain Edge]] equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Kajet|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[The Warring Demons]] to [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Kajet|Demon]] [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in [[Alpha v.s Zetto|AvZ]].
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's childhood friend, Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (RPG)|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword ([[Drain Edge]] equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Kajet|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[The Warring Demons]] to [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Kajet|Demon]] [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in [[Alpha v.s Zetto|AvZ]].
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's childhood friend, Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (RPG)|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit (TOME)|Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]], and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the [[Netking Software|Netkings]] or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In [[Monstrosities]], Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''"The current incarnation of Alpha is something I'm very happy with. When developing the personalities of the main five characters, Alpha and Flamegirl I had the most difficulty with. My original idea was keeping him fairly the same, but I felt it would've been far too boring to go that route. When I eventually decided to cast Blake Swift as his new actor (replacing Mike Luckas, who voiced "himself" in the original), the rest fell into place.
Alpha is now actually the youngest of the group, maybe only a year younger than Flamey at the most, but this age difference lets him come off as more spiritedly and naive. He's very sweet and maybe a tad awkward. His relationship with Flamegirl in this one shifted a bit, in which case he's very comfortable around her and can speak his mind when feeling vunerable or out-of-place. He also has a bit more of a bro-rivalry with Kirb this time, which makes for some funny moments.
As seen in the first episode, after being infected with "Kajet", Alpha's state of mind changes and his confidence comes to the surface. I don't imagine it so much as a split-personality sort of deal, but more like his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions, which ends up being a lifesaver to his friends. In terms of design, I brought down his shirt a bit to show less belly, fixed his hair a bit to have the spike over one eye, as well as his long sleeves and scarf, to project that sort of introverted feel to him. I also gave him a feather-tail to match his angel wings (as opposed to the strange lizard-tail).
As with the original, Alpha will be going through some major changes in TOME, so look forward to seeing him grow alongside his new-found friends!"''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref>
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]], under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in [[;Mechcity]], which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During [[Infectuation]], a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword ([[Drain Edge]] equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.

Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the [[Netking Software|Netkings]] or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In [[Monstrosities]], Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''"The current incarnation of Alpha is something I'm very happy with. When developing the personalities of the main five characters, Alpha and Flamegirl I had the most difficulty with. My original idea was keeping him fairly the same, but I felt it would've been far too boring to go that route. When I eventually decided to cast Blake Swift as his new actor (replacing Mike Luckas, who voiced "himself" in the original), the rest fell into place.
''Alpha is now actually the youngest of the group, maybe only a year younger than Flamey at the most, but this age difference lets him come off as more spiritedly and naive. He's very sweet and maybe a tad awkward. His relationship with Flamegirl in this one shifted a bit, in which case he's very comfortable around her and can speak his mind when feeling vunerable or out-of-place. He also has a bit more of a bro-rivalry with Kirb this time, which makes for some funny moments.
''As seen in the first episode, after being infected with "Kajet", Alpha's state of mind changes and his confidence comes to the surface. I don't imagine it so much as a split-personality sort of deal, but more like his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions, which ends up being a lifesaver to his friends. In terms of design, I brought down his shirt a bit to show less belly, fixed his hair a bit to have the spike over one eye, as well as his long sleeves and scarf, to project that sort of introverted feel to him. I also gave him a feather-tail to match his angel wings (as opposed to the strange lizard-tail).
''As with the original, Alpha will be going through some major changes in TOME, so look forward to seeing him grow alongside his new-found friends!"''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref>
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]], under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in [[;Mechcity]], which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During [[Infectuation]], a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword ([[Drain Edge]] equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Kajet|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[The Warring Demons]] to [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Kajet|Demon]] [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in [[Alpha v.s Zetto|AvZ]].
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's childhood friend, Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (RPG)|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit (TOME)|Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]], and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight.

===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]], under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in [[;Mechcity]], which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During [[Infectuation]], a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] had given to her.

*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's childhood friend, Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (RPG)|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit (TOME)|Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]], and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the [[Netking Software|Netkings]] or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In [[Monstrosities]], Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''"The current incarnation of Alpha is something I'm very happy with. When developing the personalities of the main five characters, Alpha and [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] I had the most difficulty with. My original idea was keeping him fairly the same, but I felt it would've been far too boring to go that route. When I eventually decided to cast Blake Swift as his new actor (replacing Mike Luckas, who voiced "himself" in the original), the rest fell into place.
''Alpha is now actually the youngest of the group, maybe only a year younger than Flamey at the most, but this age difference lets him come off as more spiritedly and naive. He's very sweet and maybe a tad awkward. His relationship with Flamegirl in this one shifted a bit, in which case he's very comfortable around her and can speak his mind when feeling vunerable or out-of-place. He also has a bit more of a bro-rivalry with [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirb]] this time, which makes for some funny moments.
''As seen in the first episode, after being infected with "[[Kajet]]", Alpha's state of mind changes and his confidence comes to the surface. I don't imagine it so much as a split-personality sort of deal, but more like his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions, which ends up being a lifesaver to his friends. In terms of design, I brought down his shirt a bit to show less belly, fixed his hair a bit to have the spike over one eye, as well as his long sleeves and scarf, to project that sort of introverted feel to him. I also gave him a feather-tail to match his angel wings (as opposed to the strange lizard-tail).
''As with the original, Alpha will be going through some major changes in TOME, so look forward to seeing him grow alongside his new-found friends!"''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref>
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]], under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in [[;Mechcity]], which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During [[Infectuation]], a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword ([[Drain Edge]] equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Kajet|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[The Warring Demons]] to [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Kajet|Demon]] [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in [[Alpha v.s Zetto|AvZ]].

*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Flamegirl''', sometimes called "Flamey" (born Stephanie Basco), is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in TOME, a [[Spellcaster]] with the power of fire. Unbeknownst to her, the antivirus program - or "Purple Flame" - to cure the Forbidden Power had been attached to her character model in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]], which was the power source of the Dragon Bug. This made her the only person able to stop the Power's influence on [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], and later put her in risk of brain death when the Purple Flame was used by [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]] to try and control SOFDTI.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''I knew her design would be staying relatively the same, but even that was tough. I fine-tuned her outfit a little, shortened her wings and gave her a matching tail...and the hair. Ohhh the hair. Even the cut that I eventually settled on proved to be difficult to manage, since drawing her little fire-loopy things that hang down turned out to be a major pain in the ass; maybe they won't be for long.
''Once I had her design in place, next came her personality. Flamey was the only of the main five characters I actually held private voiceover auditions for. Ultimately, at the advice of many people I trusted, I went with newcomer Anna Kingsley, who I think has been doing quite well so far and has been growing as an actress over the course of the series along with her character. I wanted to go with a fairly unique sound and Anna's voice, being relatively new to the scene, was a good fit.
''In terms of writing her dialogue, to this day I'm still a little shaky on what works for her or not. Going into the series, I knew I wanted to exaggerate Alpha's shyness, Kirbopher's anger and Nylocke's over-the-topness, while taking Gamecrazed's original snark and dryness and dividing it up amongst Kirb and Flamegirl. I consider Flamey to be the most "normal" of the main five; the most like a typical teenager/young woman (I peg her at about 18-19 or so) and therefore, the unofficial "leader" of the gang. Nylocke acts as such, especially when leading them against the hacker threat, but because he's so caught up in his character, Flamey is the intellect behind his muscle.
''In terms of her "budding romance" with Alpha, I'm also trying to handle that very carefully and as naturally as possible. I'm hoping that the general female viewership are comfortable with her a lead heroine and that they look forward to seeing where the story takes her as much as the other heroes.''<ref>[https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Flamegirl-290810700]</ref>
===Season 1===
Flamegirl first appears in [[You Gotta Virus]] where she is talking to Gamecrazed and awaits the arrival of the rest of her friends. Alpha and [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] finally arrive and they all begin to discuss plans on how they'll deal with the hackers who keep ravaging TOME.
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.
She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the [[Forbidden Power]] took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Her apparent love interest, the two are quite close. She is impressed by the sheer power and confidence Alpha exerts while using the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': The two seem to be close friends, but due to both being close to Alpha, they also appear to have a rivalry for his friendship, they often get into fights and arguments and seem to disagree a lot about things.
*'''[[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]''': Flamegirl knows more about Nylocke's true personality than any of the others, due to the fact that she was online when he logged on drunk one day.
*'''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': The two have not interacted very much.
*'''[[Saturndiva (TOME)|Saturndiva]]''' & '''[[Whyti (TOME)|Whyti]]''': They are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of [[Mechcity]].
===Enemies===
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Like the rest of her group, she often fights hackers together with her friends.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': Though Flamegirl has dismissed him several times, and regards him as a stalker with clear distain, Neomutant still pursues her affection, going as far as to join TOME as a hacker to protect her from Alpha.
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': Flamegirl, along with Alpha, approached her age-old Hacker enemy towards the end of [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]]. This was when she first saw the Forbidden Power within Alpha.
==Abilities==
*'''Flame Bullet''': A rapid projectile attack that allows the user to shoot small blasts of fire from their fingers.
*'''Rocket Burn''': A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. This move can also be turned into a spinning attack.
*'''Angry Burst''': A short-range but forceful attack made of concentrated flames.
*'''Sun Bomb''': A chargable projectile attack that moves slowly but causes a greater explosion upon impact.
*'''The Anti-Virus''': A purple flame that acts as a vaccine against the Forbidden Power, which she unknowningly obtained from [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]].
==Trivia==
* Flamegirl's ID number is 008-974-659.

Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.
She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the [[Forbidden Power]] took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Her apparent love interest, the two are quite close. She is impressed by the sheer power and confidence Alpha exerts while using the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': The two seem to be close friends, but due to both being close to Alpha, they also appear to have a rivalry for his friendship, they often get into fights and arguments and seem to disagree a lot about things.

*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': Though Flamegirl has dismissed him several times, and regards him as a stalker with clear distain, Neomutant still pursues her affection, going as far as to join TOME as a hacker to protect her from Alpha.
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': Flamegirl, along with Alpha, approached her age-old Hacker enemy towards the end of [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]]. This was when she first saw the Forbidden Power within Alpha.

'''Flamegirl''', sometimes called "Flamey" (born Stephanie Basco), is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in TOME, a [[Spellcaster]] with the power of fire. Unbeknownst to her, the antivirus program - or "Purple Flame" - to cure the Forbidden Power had been attached to her character model in [[Highest Form of Flattery]], which was the power source of the Dragon Bug. This made her the only person able to stop the Power's influence on [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], and later put her in risk of brain death when the Purple Flame was used by [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]] to try and control SOFDTI.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''I knew her design would be staying relatively the same, but even that was tough. I fine-tuned her outfit a little, shortened her wings and gave her a matching tail...and the hair. Ohhh the hair. Even the cut that I eventually settled on proved to be difficult to manage, since drawing her little fire-loopy things that hang down turned out to be a major pain in the ass; maybe they won't be for long.
''Once I had her design in place, next came her personality. Flamey was the only of the main five characters I actually held private voiceover auditions for. Ultimately, at the advice of many people I trusted, I went with newcomer Anna Kingsley, who I think has been doing quite well so far and has been growing as an actress over the course of the series along with her character. I wanted to go with a fairly unique sound and Anna's voice, being relatively new to the scene, was a good fit.
''In terms of writing her dialogue, to this day I'm still a little shaky on what works for her or not. Going into the series, I knew I wanted to exaggerate Alpha's shyness, Kirbopher's anger and Nylocke's over-the-topness, while taking Gamecrazed's original snark and dryness and dividing it up amongst Kirb and Flamegirl. I consider Flamey to be the most "normal" of the main five; the most like a typical teenager/young woman (I peg her at about 18-19 or so) and therefore, the unofficial "leader" of the gang. Nylocke acts as such, especially when leading them against the hacker threat, but because he's so caught up in his character, Flamey is the intellect behind his muscle.
''In terms of her "budding romance" with Alpha, I'm also trying to handle that very carefully and as naturally as possible. I'm hoping that the general female viewership are comfortable with her a lead heroine and that they look forward to seeing where the story takes her as much as the other heroes.''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Flamegirl-290810700</ref>

'''Kirbopher''', sometimes shortened to "Kirb," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Swordsman]] class with an Enchanted Sword. He is later revealed to be an alternate character account of [[Zetto]], created solely for the fun of the game. Cynical and short-tempered, his character is based on that of the series creator, who shares the same username. Many people mispronounce his name, whether it be in joke or misunderstanding. As of the final episode of season 2, it's implied that 'Kirbopher' is no longer in use.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''Kirbopher’s personality has probably changed the least compared to the original, as evidenced by keeping myself as his voice performer as well.
''From a design standpoint, I opted for his “imp” design as opposed to the unoriginal albino Kirby he once was. This design was, oddly enough, drawn LONG before the original TTA started, but I was forced to go with the Kirby design mainly due to sprite editing limitations.
''Several years ago, when I decided to ditch the stigmatic “15” in my name and switch to the new design, I’ll admit at first I wasn’t too enthused. Kirbopher was, for a while, just a placeholder for Chris Frost from 'BALANCING ACT' before I was comfortable with revealing its existence to the world.
''After some time passed and I had touched up his design to look a bit more tattered (like a trouble-making thief) I grew to like it a whole lot! As far as his role in the story goes, I plan on giving him a lot more development and emotional layers this time around. Surprisingly, part of this was from my choice to not only dis-include him from the resistance against the hackers, but to have him be very uncaring about it. Kirb’s purpose on TOME is to have fun, not to get involved in time-wasting drama. [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], who grows to be one of his closest friends, understands and respects that, giving him the attention he craves in the form of constant battles. The two of them have a fun dynamic separate from the main plot involving the hackers and viruses…and that friendship of theirs will soon be jumped through hoops of fire.
===Season 1===
[[File:Kirb.jpg|thumb|left|185px|Kirb preparing to battle Alpha]]
Kirbopher first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|episode 1]], looking down from a cliff as [[Alpha]] logs in. He challenges him to a battle and promptly loses. Kirbopher and Alpha then meet up with the rest of the gang, who are gearing up to go fight a [[Rockoon (TOME)|couple o]][[Doubling (TOME)|f hackers]] that have been terrorizing [[;Lavendera]].
Kirbopher refuses to join them, as he wants to play "the fun freakin' part of the game." He heads off into the woods to fight a few players, but ends up getting ganged up on. He fortunately runs into [[Flamegirl]] and Alpha, who reluctantly help him fend off the attackers before leaving to fight the hackers. Kirbopher appears at the end of the episode, slashing Rockoon in half as he attempts an escape. When Alpha doesn't notice his entrance, he goes berserk and initiates a battle.
[[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]] begins with Kirb logging into the game, looking for a round of late-night battles in ;Lavendera. He then runs into [[Sniperwheel]], who is ready for one last battle before logging off for the day. Kirbopher narrowly defeats him, and is about to challenge him to another match, when he sees [[Gamecrazed]] leaving the crowd.
He promptly follows him. Along the way, Nylocke joins him, and together they follow Gamecrazed to a mysterious mansion that is supposed to be off-limits. Gamecrazed enters the mansion, with the duo following him. Eventually, they lose track of him and run into [[Asterob]], who is working on completing the Mansion's graphics before it opens. Suddenly, all three of them are attacked by [[Splat]], who incapacitates Nylocke and Kirbopher before demanding Asterob's shield.
Gamecrazed appears and defends Asterob, ultimately defeating Splat. After exiting the mansion, Gamecrazed asks Nylocke and Kirbopher why they were following him. Kirbopher explains that they know almost nothing about Gamecrazed, but admits that following him probably was a dumb idea and he forgives him.
Kirbopher reappears in [[Fraggedquest|episode 4]], joining the rest of the gang on a quest to build and defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol]]. Kirbopher is chosen to find the idol's head at the edge of ;Lavendera, which he reluctantly agrees to do. He quickly finds it, but runs into Rockoon on his way back, who is not too happy about the outcome of their previous encounter. He steals the idol's head and runs off, but accidentally trips and breaks part of its ear. Kirbopher loses him, but does find the head and hurries back to the others, who have found their pieces. They assemble the idol, noting that part of its ear seems to be missing, and then wait in ;Lavendera for the moon to rise.
During the interim, the group discusses hanging out in real life, with Kirbopher being as cynical about the whole idea as ever. When the moon rises, the Shadow Guard Idol comes to life, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the monster, bonding with it and knocking Alpha out of the arena. Kirbopher and the gang's attacks have no effect until Alpha reappears and reunites the piece of the ear with Rockoon, making him vulnerable. Kirbopher uses his wind powers to help defeat Rockoon, before threatening to chop him into pieces again. Rockoon flees, and Kirbopher complains about the lack of reward for completing a hacked quest.
In [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]], Kirbopher first appears training with the others for the Gemini Tournament. He initiates a training round with Alpha, giving him pointers on how to fight with the most energy. When [[Flamegirl]] compliments Alpha on his technique, Kirbopher starts to argue with her about Alpha's friendship, insulting her, angering Alpha, and causing much discomfort for the rest of the group. Suddenly, [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]] appears and knocks Kirbopher away, before using her Sonic Screech ability to bring out the [[Forbidden Power]] inside Alpha. When Alpha turns into his demon form and destroys Tigerlilly, Kirbopher thinks that Alpha is ready for a fight and challenges him. Although they fight evenly for a good while, Kirbopher tells Alpha to show him "the real deal," and Alpha responds by attacking Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power, severely injuring him and defeating him. He is not seen for the rest of the episode.
Kirbopher reappears briefly in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], talking to Gamecrazed in ;Mechcity. When Nylocke arrives, he shows surprise at seeing Kirbopher back in the game, as he had been gone for two days. Kirbopher asks Nylocke to give him some advice. He had wanted to ask Alpha to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament, but after what he said in episode 5, he isn't sure how Alpha will react to him. Nylocke freezes, as this serious question is not something he wants to experience while playing the game. He dodges around the question, giving a vague answer about choosing the right path in friendship.
Kirbopher sighs and says he should probably just wait to talk with Alpha and Flamegirl, and Nylocke enthusiastically agrees with him. Kirbopher then asks if Nylocke would be his partner, but Nylocke also nervously dodges that question and tells Kirbopher to continue training until his "destined brother-in-arms" reveals himself. Disappointed, Kirbopher logs off, saying that he might stay away from the game for a little while longer.
Kirbopher finally logs back in [[Infectuation|Episode 7]], where he is determined to finally talk with Flamegirl and Alpha about the incident in episode 5. Unfortunately, he gets held up by [[Archy]], a rabid fan who has been following Kirbopher. Although Kirbopher repeatedly shuns him, Archy keeps attempting to ask Kirbopher to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament.
These interruptions prevent Kirbopher from getting to Alpha before he is possessed, and thus he shows up just as Flamegirl uses the anti-virus to stabilize Alpha. Misreading the situation, he meets up with them later outside the Balanstadium gates in ;Mechcity, just after Alpha and Flamegirl sign up as a team for the Gemini Tournament. Internally crushed, Kirbopher laughs it off and states that it's better this way, as he can now defeat Alpha in front of the entire world. As he dejectedly walks away, Archy reappears, and Kirbopher grudgingly accepts him as his partner.
Not getting Alpha as his partner has drastically upset his plans, so during the Gemini Tournament, Kirbopher acts much more serious and surly than normal.
In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], Kirbopher faces [[Skeight]] and Rockoon (under the guise of "Raccoon") in the first round. Archy is quickly defeated, and Rockoon disposes of Skeight at his earliest chance. Leaving the two of them alone, Rockoon attempts to defeat Kirbopher with his aptly-named "Kirb Stomp," but is impaled on Kirbopher's sword, leaving Kirbopher the victor.
When he sees Alpha and Flamegirl win their next round, he states that he is "not having a good time," but does not elaborate on what is irking him. Alpha tries to talk to him and warn him about Zetto, but Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's just wasting his time and that he's going to end this as soon as possible. In his next match, against Zetto and [[Kizuna]], he simply walks into the arena and raises his arms, allowing Zetto to destroy him instantly. He is not seen for the rest of the tournament.
Kirbopher appears briefly during the credits sequence of [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], sitting in ;Lavendera with a grieved look on his face.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Kirbopher first appears in the forest of ;Lavendera with Gamecrazed, gearing himself up to try and repair his relationship with Alpha and Flamegirl. When they do arrive, he congratulates them on their performance in the tournament, but before he can try to ask for their friendship, a large group of players assaults them, aiming for Alpha. Although the group is defeated, Alpha begins to lament that he is sick and tired of the Forbidden Power and just wants to be rid of it forever. With a guilty look, Kirbopher slips away and heads to the ;Mechcity docks, where he disconnects from the game and logs into TOME's moon as Zetto. This was the official revelation that Kirbopher is, in fact, an alternate account for Zetto. Kirbopher only reappears as himself at the end of the episode, standing in front of the crater in the Balanstadium where Zetto had been defeated, with a tired look on his face. Gamecrazed is there with him, telling him, "It's over."
===Season 2===
Kirbopher returns in [[Year One|Episode 11]], back to his usual cynical self. He is first seen walking towards ;Sanctuary from ;Mechcity, when he is challenged by Alpha. Victorious as usual, Alpha invites him to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher does indeed show up, and is present, along with Nylocke, when Gamecrazed is selected for the Challenge of the Netkings quest.
When Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join Gamecrazed's team, Kirbopher nearly refuses, but then caves in when the rest of the group insists that he join the team, "just like old times," as Alpha puts it. He then joins the gang the next day at the Netking statues, where he and the other four are taken up to HOME. He isn't fazed by the somewhat unexpected look of the first room and encourages the others to get going.
When [[Execk]] appears, Kirbopher taunts him, causing Execk to freeze him in a block of ice. Flamegirl thaws him out only after Alpha defeats Execk, stating he "needed the time out." Alpha says that Kirbopher helped him by revealing some of Execk's powers before the match, to which Kirbopher replies that he completely meant to do that. When a portal appears to the next room, Kirbopher follows Nylocke, telling him to slow down. In the next room, a large crystal cavern, Alpha says that something feels different about this area, but Kirbopher counters that it's probably just the Netking putting on a show. A giant crystal then rises out of the ground and shatters, revealing what appears to be Zetto, which absolutely shocks Kirbopher.
[[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] picks up right where Episode 11 left off. "Zetto" begins bragging in a very over-the-top, dramatic way, before revealing himself to be [[Rubirules]] in disguise. Kirbopher is incredibly weirded out by the experience, and almost starts the fight with Rubirules. Nylocke takes his place instead, saying that Rubirules' appearance as Zetto has made the battle personal. Nylocke eventually defeats Rubirules, and the group heads into the next area through another portal.
This area seems to be a temple in the clouds, and Kirbopher once again reminds the gang that the area design means nothing. [[Kindarspirit]] then appears and greets the group using her system voice. Kirbopher tells her that she doesn't need to be in character around them and that they know it's just a game. With that said, Kindarspirit reverts to her true personality and goes crazy over how cute Kirbopher is, grabbing him and hugging him. She then traps him in a cloud and sends him up to the ceiling. Flamegirl offers to "save" Kirbopher and defeats Kindarspirit. Kirbopher is freed, now very angry at his lack of battles, and the group proceeds to the next area. Before fighting the next Netking, the group discusses what their prize should be if they win.
Alpha suggests that they should set up some sort of meet-and-greet with the creators, and Kirbopher surprisingly agrees to the idea. [[Bitshrum]] then appears and challenges one of them to topple him from his throne. As Gamecrazed will fight the last Netking, Kirbopher must fight Bitshrum. Kirbopher is none too happy that he has to fight "the mushroom guy," and this is only made worse as Nylocke begins describing the glorious battle between a squire and a king. At this, Kirbopher loses his cool and charges Bitshrum, screaming that he's not a squire and he's not an imp. He carves through Bitshrum's box powers and defeats him, Super Mario Bros. style. From atop the throne, Kirbopher screams that he is the greatest player in TOME, better than any of the Netkings. After a bit of coaxing, he hops down from the throne. When the next portal opens, Nylocke allows Kirbopher to go before him, calling him "Your Majesty." Webmaster appears on the other side, and after a fierce battle, Gamecrazed defeats him.
After the group is congratulated by the Netkings, Zetto and Kizuna are revealed to be former Netkings themselves. Kirbopher notices that Alpha starts getting worked up when this is mentioned and tries to stop him before he says anything. Alpha ignores him and asks the Netkings about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Kirbopher states that the group isn't obligated to keep anything the Netkings say secret. The Netkings refuse to reveal anything when they see the Power approaching HOME and forcefully log the players out.
In Episode 13, Alpha confronts Kirbopher at a park in ;Mechcity to request his help for a mission to infiltrate D-Buggers. Kirbopher states that he's not going and snaps at Alpha, telling him he needs to stop trying to play the hero and just play the game for what it is. Alpha says he has to do this, in which Kirb remarks that he's crazy. They both part ways afterward and Kirb isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
In [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto logs back in as Kirb after being defeated by the malfunctioning Dragon Bug, having left him still in the game. He talks if he can't stop the Dragon Bug while in his current form, he adds that he at least tried to destroy the Forbidden Power, [[Kajet]]. Kirb calls the monster's attention before he attacks. Kirb puts up a good fight against the virus, but his sword is soon absorbed into the dragon and he begins to get crushed in its fist. When the Dragon Bug arrives from the moon, Kajet flings Kirb's damaged model into Sanctuary, where Alpha finds him unstable and unconscious.
==Personality==
Kirbopher aims to enjoy himself in TOME, choosing not to get involved in 'drama' that he considers pointless. He's shown to be very hyperactive, short-tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied by his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10. Though he's snarky and sarcastic towards his friends, and can get annoyed with them sometimes (especially Nylocke), he is shown to care deeply about them, and has a sensitive side that he seems to prefer not to show.
Throughout the series, he is shown to have a tendency of taking his anger/frustrations out on other people. From Episode 1, he decides to defeat Rockoon, despite the other already running away, out of frustration that the hacker isn't following his (Zetto's) orders.
It's also implied that Kirbopher has issues controlling his jealousy. In Episode 5, he's clearly envious of the newfound attention that Alpha receives following his defeat of the hackers, responding poorly to the compliments Flamegirl gives the other. He is also jealous of the attention that Alpha gives her. In the fact bubble for Episode 5, it's stated that he is "very attached" to Alpha as a friend<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlbwGkbWLg</ref>, and within the episode, he insults Flamegirl her by calling her a cougar, seemingly implying that he wants her to back off of the other.
As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, offering up the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. Though he probably does wish could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in [[Plan Z|Short #7]] that the 'Kirbopher' account was created to as an escape from his search for the Forbidden Power, and to enjoy TOME for how it should've been, just hanging out with his friends.
He has a tendency to talk to himself.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
[[File:Kirb_with_friends.jpg|thumb|left|188px|Kirbopher challenges Alpha to another match.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Kirbopher and Alpha are very good friends, and seem to have known each other for quite a while. Kirbopher sees Alpha as a friendly rival to test his skills against, though sometimes he gets jealous of the amount of attention Alpha gets. In the latter half of season 1, however, they become rather distant from each other ever since Alpha unintentionally hurt him with the Forbidden Power in episode 5. After an argument with Flamegirl, Kirbopher feels bad for how he acted and wants to apologize. In Infectuation, Alpha is relieved that Kirbopher is all right, but Kirbopher gets upset when Alpha says that Flamegirl is his partner for the Gemini Tournament as he thought his plan would've gone smoother. Later on in the season, he seem to be even more distant from the group because of the circumstances with the Forbidden Power.<br /><br />Fortunately, by the events of the second season, Alpha has moved on from the Gemini Tournament conflicts, and insists that Kirbopher join the group on the Challenge of the Netkings quest. Things are back to normal until Episode 13, where Kirb and Alpha's conflicting goals and views cause them to separate once again.
[[File:Kirb_with_nylocke.jpg|thumb|right|188px|Kirb with Nylocke in the mansion.]]
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Although Nylocke and Kirbopher tend to get along with each other pretty well, Nylocke is the one who Kirbopher shows aggravation at the most out of anyone else. However, when Kirbopher is feeling upset in episode 6, he immediately goes to Nylocke for help, even though Nylocke is unable to give him a straight answer. Kirbopher even considered asking Nylocke to be his partner if his plan didn't turn out as he hoped.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': Kirbopher and Flamegirl are good friends but before he seemed to generally dislike Flamegirl. There are times where he insults her about her feelings for Alpha, and because of that they often get into fights and arguments with each other. They disagree on several things, such as whether or not their time in TOME should be spent fighting hackers instead of playing the game like normal. In season 2 however, their relationship has gotten better but they still tease each other in a more playful manner.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Due to his quiet nature, Gamecrazed has not had much interaction with Kirbopher. In episode 2, Kirbopher and Nylocke attempt to tail Gamecrazed in order to learn more about him. The attempt is foiled, however, when Splat attacks the mansion. Gamecrazed was also the first person Kirbopher talks to after his fallout with Alpha and Flamegirl, and it is hinted that Gamecrazed may be privy to Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]].
*'''[[Archy]]''': Kirbopher tolerates Archy at best and outright insults him at worst. Although not stated, it is implied that Archy has been following him for quite some time, causing Kirbopher to become rather annoyed when he appears. Archy becomes his Gemini partner only because Kirbopher's other choices (Alpha and Nylocke) were taken.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher is an alternative account of Zetto. It was through Kirbopher that Zetto was able to monitor Alpha's condition. There are several occasions where Kirbopher logs in both as Zetto and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposely let Kirbopher take Zetto's Breaker Beam in order to continue through the Gemini Tournament as Zetto; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually log himself in as Zetto to confront Alpha and the [[Forbidden Power]]. After a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control, his body badly damaged.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Although Kirbopher does not actively fight the hackers, his accidental encounter with Rockoon has caused the two to have a mutual aversion to each other. However, in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], he seems to be sympathetic towards Rockoon after he witnesses Rockoon's fallout with [[Skeight]]. This may be due to him seeing the kind of trouble that occurs when a person uses two characters at the same time without admitting they are the same person.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Spin Slash''': An aerial cutting attack in which the user spins rapidly into a powerful cut. This technique can be turned into a Shockwave upon finishing.
*'''Ice Knives''': A projectile attack where a swarm of sharp icicles spread out from a slash of the user’s weapon.
*'''Dust Tornado''': A slow, but forceful projectile attack that can entrap the opponent and allows for a swift follow-up combo.
*'''Shockwave''': A powerful attack that travels along the ground and trips up the opponent upon impact.

==Trivia==
*Kirbopher and TOME in general make allusions to the number "11" in some shape or form.
**The release date for [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]] was 11-11-11, and the end of the original About TOME trailer showed Kirbopher running up and slicing the date in half.
**In the original ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Kirbopher was named "Kirbopher15". 15 is 1111 in binary.
**In Episode 10, the time when Alpha arrives at Balanstadium to meet Zetto is 11:11:11.
**Episode 11 shows Kirbopher's player ID is 001-501-111.
*During Episode 11 of ''TV TOME Adventures'', in which [https://kirbopher15.deviantart.com/art/Tsuzuku-14427657 Tsuzuku] (who would become [[Tsuzuku]] in TOME) would repeatedly call Kirbopher15 "Kirbofour15".
**This was also referenced in the [[April Fools Special]] short, in which a spoofed version of Kirbopher15 appears, named Kirbo4.
* His design seems to be loosely inspired by [[w:c:zelda:Link|Link]] from ''[[w:c:zelda:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
*Chris Niosi, along with Alpha's voice actor Blake Swift, sings TOME's first season main theme ("[[Battle On!]]").
*Kirbopher's height is somewhat inconsistent. He is clearly the shortest of the others, but in some scenes, he stands more than a foot shorter than his friends, and in other shots he is almost as tall as Alpha or Flamegirl.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in Episode 10 and Plan Z, clues were dropped throughout The Gemini Tournament arc and Episode 10 to indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person.
**Both Zetto and Kirbopher were interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher stood immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
**With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
** Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines are both, "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say, "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!"
**As Webmaster stated at the end of Episode 10, players who left the game without logging off remained in the game with their eyes turned grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after losing to Alpha after being controlled by the Forbidden Power, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Another clue exclusive to the "Kirbopher" account is in Episode 7 he hears Demon Alpha's scream and panics a bit, also telling Archy to get lost, implying that he already knows about the Forbidden Power.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor, although this was not revealed until Episode 10.
**Also, in Episode 1, during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.

'''Kirbopher''', sometimes shortened to "Kirb," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Swordsman]] class with an Enchanted Sword. He is later revealed to be an alternate character account of [[Zetto]], created solely for the fun of the game. Cynical and short-tempered, his character is based on that of the series creator, who shares the same username. Many people mispronounce his name, whether it be in joke or misunderstanding. As of the final episode of season 2, it's implied that 'Kirbopher' is no longer in use.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''Kirbopher’s personality has probably changed the least compared to the original, as evidenced by keeping myself as his voice performer as well.
''From a design standpoint, I opted for his “imp” design as opposed to the unoriginal albino Kirby he once was. This design was, oddly enough, drawn LONG before the original TTA started, but I was forced to go with the Kirby design mainly due to sprite editing limitations.
''Several years ago, when I decided to ditch the stigmatic “15” in my name and switch to the new design, I’ll admit at first I wasn’t too enthused. Kirbopher was, for a while, just a placeholder for Chris Frost from 'BALANCING ACT' before I was comfortable with revealing its existence to the world.
''After some time passed and I had touched up his design to look a bit more tattered (like a trouble-making thief) I grew to like it a whole lot! As far as his role in the story goes, I plan on giving him a lot more development and emotional layers this time around. Surprisingly, part of this was from my choice to not only dis-include him from the resistance against the hackers, but to have him be very uncaring about it. Kirb’s purpose on TOME is to have fun, not to get involved in time-wasting drama. [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], who grows to be one of his closest friends, understands and respects that, giving him the attention he craves in the form of constant battles. The two of them have a fun dynamic separate from the main plot involving the hackers and viruses…and that friendship of theirs will soon be jumped through hoops of fire.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kirbopher-272396614</ref>
===Season 1===
[[File:Kirb.jpg|thumb|left|185px|Kirb preparing to battle Alpha]]
Kirbopher first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|episode 1]], looking down from a cliff as [[Alpha]] logs in. He challenges him to a battle and promptly loses. Kirbopher and Alpha then meet up with the rest of the gang, who are gearing up to go fight a [[Rockoon (TOME)|couple o]][[Doubling (TOME)|f hackers]] that have been terrorizing [[;Lavendera]].
Kirbopher refuses to join them, as he wants to play "the fun freakin' part of the game." He heads off into the woods to fight a few players, but ends up getting ganged up on. He fortunately runs into [[Flamegirl]] and Alpha, who reluctantly help him fend off the attackers before leaving to fight the hackers. Kirbopher appears at the end of the episode, slashing Rockoon in half as he attempts an escape. When Alpha doesn't notice his entrance, he goes berserk and initiates a battle.
[[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]] begins with Kirb logging into the game, looking for a round of late-night battles in ;Lavendera. He then runs into [[Sniperwheel]], who is ready for one last battle before logging off for the day. Kirbopher narrowly defeats him, and is about to challenge him to another match, when he sees [[Gamecrazed]] leaving the crowd.
He promptly follows him. Along the way, Nylocke joins him, and together they follow Gamecrazed to a mysterious mansion that is supposed to be off-limits. Gamecrazed enters the mansion, with the duo following him. Eventually, they lose track of him and run into [[Asterob]], who is working on completing the Mansion's graphics before it opens. Suddenly, all three of them are attacked by [[Splat]], who incapacitates Nylocke and Kirbopher before demanding Asterob's shield.
Gamecrazed appears and defends Asterob, ultimately defeating Splat. After exiting the mansion, Gamecrazed asks Nylocke and Kirbopher why they were following him. Kirbopher explains that they know almost nothing about Gamecrazed, but admits that following him probably was a dumb idea and he forgives him.
Kirbopher reappears in [[Fraggedquest|episode 4]], joining the rest of the gang on a quest to build and defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol]]. Kirbopher is chosen to find the idol's head at the edge of ;Lavendera, which he reluctantly agrees to do. He quickly finds it, but runs into Rockoon on his way back, who is not too happy about the outcome of their previous encounter. He steals the idol's head and runs off, but accidentally trips and breaks part of its ear. Kirbopher loses him, but does find the head and hurries back to the others, who have found their pieces. They assemble the idol, noting that part of its ear seems to be missing, and then wait in ;Lavendera for the moon to rise.
During the interim, the group discusses hanging out in real life, with Kirbopher being as cynical about the whole idea as ever. When the moon rises, the Shadow Guard Idol comes to life, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the monster, bonding with it and knocking Alpha out of the arena. Kirbopher and the gang's attacks have no effect until Alpha reappears and reunites the piece of the ear with Rockoon, making him vulnerable. Kirbopher uses his wind powers to help defeat Rockoon, before threatening to chop him into pieces again. Rockoon flees, and Kirbopher complains about the lack of reward for completing a hacked quest.
In [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]], Kirbopher first appears training with the others for the Gemini Tournament. He initiates a training round with Alpha, giving him pointers on how to fight with the most energy. When [[Flamegirl]] compliments Alpha on his technique, Kirbopher starts to argue with her about Alpha's friendship, insulting her, angering Alpha, and causing much discomfort for the rest of the group. Suddenly, [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]] appears and knocks Kirbopher away, before using her Sonic Screech ability to bring out the [[Forbidden Power]] inside Alpha. When Alpha turns into his demon form and destroys Tigerlilly, Kirbopher thinks that Alpha is ready for a fight and challenges him. Although they fight evenly for a good while, Kirbopher tells Alpha to show him "the real deal," and Alpha responds by attacking Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power, severely injuring him and defeating him. He is not seen for the rest of the episode.
Kirbopher reappears briefly in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], talking to Gamecrazed in ;Mechcity. When Nylocke arrives, he shows surprise at seeing Kirbopher back in the game, as he had been gone for two days. Kirbopher asks Nylocke to give him some advice. He had wanted to ask Alpha to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament, but after what he said in episode 5, he isn't sure how Alpha will react to him. Nylocke freezes, as this serious question is not something he wants to experience while playing the game. He dodges around the question, giving a vague answer about choosing the right path in friendship.
Kirbopher sighs and says he should probably just wait to talk with Alpha and Flamegirl, and Nylocke enthusiastically agrees with him. Kirbopher then asks if Nylocke would be his partner, but Nylocke also nervously dodges that question and tells Kirbopher to continue training until his "destined brother-in-arms" reveals himself. Disappointed, Kirbopher logs off, saying that he might stay away from the game for a little while longer.
Kirbopher finally logs back in [[Infectuation|Episode 7]], where he is determined to finally talk with Flamegirl and Alpha about the incident in episode 5. Unfortunately, he gets held up by [[Archy]], a rabid fan who has been following Kirbopher. Although Kirbopher repeatedly shuns him, Archy keeps attempting to ask Kirbopher to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament.
These interruptions prevent Kirbopher from getting to Alpha before he is possessed, and thus he shows up just as Flamegirl uses the anti-virus to stabilize Alpha. Misreading the situation, he meets up with them later outside the Balanstadium gates in ;Mechcity, just after Alpha and Flamegirl sign up as a team for the Gemini Tournament. Internally crushed, Kirbopher laughs it off and states that it's better this way, as he can now defeat Alpha in front of the entire world. As he dejectedly walks away, Archy reappears, and Kirbopher grudgingly accepts him as his partner.
Not getting Alpha as his partner has drastically upset his plans, so during the Gemini Tournament, Kirbopher acts much more serious and surly than normal.
In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], Kirbopher faces [[Skeight]] and Rockoon (under the guise of "Raccoon") in the first round. Archy is quickly defeated, and Rockoon disposes of Skeight at his earliest chance. Leaving the two of them alone, Rockoon attempts to defeat Kirbopher with his aptly-named "Kirb Stomp," but is impaled on Kirbopher's sword, leaving Kirbopher the victor.
When he sees Alpha and Flamegirl win their next round, he states that he is "not having a good time," but does not elaborate on what is irking him. Alpha tries to talk to him and warn him about Zetto, but Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's just wasting his time and that he's going to end this as soon as possible. In his next match, against Zetto and [[Kizuna]], he simply walks into the arena and raises his arms, allowing Zetto to destroy him instantly. He is not seen for the rest of the tournament.
Kirbopher appears briefly during the credits sequence of [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], sitting in ;Lavendera with a grieved look on his face.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Kirbopher first appears in the forest of ;Lavendera with Gamecrazed, gearing himself up to try and repair his relationship with Alpha and Flamegirl. When they do arrive, he congratulates them on their performance in the tournament, but before he can try to ask for their friendship, a large group of players assaults them, aiming for Alpha. Although the group is defeated, Alpha begins to lament that he is sick and tired of the Forbidden Power and just wants to be rid of it forever. With a guilty look, Kirbopher slips away and heads to the ;Mechcity docks, where he disconnects from the game and logs into TOME's moon as Zetto. This was the official revelation that Kirbopher is, in fact, an alternate account for Zetto. Kirbopher only reappears as himself at the end of the episode, standing in front of the crater in the Balanstadium where Zetto had been defeated, with a tired look on his face. Gamecrazed is there with him, telling him, "It's over."
===Season 2===
Kirbopher returns in [[Year One|Episode 11]], back to his usual cynical self. He is first seen walking towards ;Sanctuary from ;Mechcity, when he is challenged by Alpha. Victorious as usual, Alpha invites him to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher does indeed show up, and is present, along with Nylocke, when Gamecrazed is selected for the Challenge of the Netkings quest.
When Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join Gamecrazed's team, Kirbopher nearly refuses, but then caves in when the rest of the group insists that he join the team, "just like old times," as Alpha puts it. He then joins the gang the next day at the Netking statues, where he and the other four are taken up to HOME. He isn't fazed by the somewhat unexpected look of the first room and encourages the others to get going.
When [[Execk]] appears, Kirbopher taunts him, causing Execk to freeze him in a block of ice. Flamegirl thaws him out only after Alpha defeats Execk, stating he "needed the time out." Alpha says that Kirbopher helped him by revealing some of Execk's powers before the match, to which Kirbopher replies that he completely meant to do that. When a portal appears to the next room, Kirbopher follows Nylocke, telling him to slow down. In the next room, a large crystal cavern, Alpha says that something feels different about this area, but Kirbopher counters that it's probably just the Netking putting on a show. A giant crystal then rises out of the ground and shatters, revealing what appears to be Zetto, which absolutely shocks Kirbopher.
[[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] picks up right where Episode 11 left off. "Zetto" begins bragging in a very over-the-top, dramatic way, before revealing himself to be [[Rubirules]] in disguise. Kirbopher is incredibly weirded out by the experience, and almost starts the fight with Rubirules. Nylocke takes his place instead, saying that Rubirules' appearance as Zetto has made the battle personal. Nylocke eventually defeats Rubirules, and the group heads into the next area through another portal.
This area seems to be a temple in the clouds, and Kirbopher once again reminds the gang that the area design means nothing. [[Kindarspirit]] then appears and greets the group using her system voice. Kirbopher tells her that she doesn't need to be in character around them and that they know it's just a game. With that said, Kindarspirit reverts to her true personality and goes crazy over how cute Kirbopher is, grabbing him and hugging him. She then traps him in a cloud and sends him up to the ceiling. Flamegirl offers to "save" Kirbopher and defeats Kindarspirit. Kirbopher is freed, now very angry at his lack of battles, and the group proceeds to the next area. Before fighting the next Netking, the group discusses what their prize should be if they win.
Alpha suggests that they should set up some sort of meet-and-greet with the creators, and Kirbopher surprisingly agrees to the idea. [[Bitshrum]] then appears and challenges one of them to topple him from his throne. As Gamecrazed will fight the last Netking, Kirbopher must fight Bitshrum. Kirbopher is none too happy that he has to fight "the mushroom guy," and this is only made worse as Nylocke begins describing the glorious battle between a squire and a king. At this, Kirbopher loses his cool and charges Bitshrum, screaming that he's not a squire and he's not an imp. He carves through Bitshrum's box powers and defeats him, Super Mario Bros. style. From atop the throne, Kirbopher screams that he is the greatest player in TOME, better than any of the Netkings. After a bit of coaxing, he hops down from the throne. When the next portal opens, Nylocke allows Kirbopher to go before him, calling him "Your Majesty." Webmaster appears on the other side, and after a fierce battle, Gamecrazed defeats him.
After the group is congratulated by the Netkings, Zetto and Kizuna are revealed to be former Netkings themselves. Kirbopher notices that Alpha starts getting worked up when this is mentioned and tries to stop him before he says anything. Alpha ignores him and asks the Netkings about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Kirbopher states that the group isn't obligated to keep anything the Netkings say secret. The Netkings refuse to reveal anything when they see the Power approaching HOME and forcefully log the players out.
In Episode 13, Alpha confronts Kirbopher at a park in ;Mechcity to request his help for a mission to infiltrate D-Buggers. Kirbopher states that he's not going and snaps at Alpha, telling him he needs to stop trying to play the hero and just play the game for what it is. Alpha says he has to do this, in which Kirb remarks that he's crazy. They both part ways afterward and Kirb isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
In [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto logs back in as Kirb after being defeated by the malfunctioning Dragon Bug, having left him still in the game. He talks if he can't stop the Dragon Bug while in his current form, he adds that he at least tried to destroy the Forbidden Power, [[Kajet]]. Kirb calls the monster's attention before he attacks. Kirb puts up a good fight against the virus, but his sword is soon absorbed into the dragon and he begins to get crushed in its fist. When the Dragon Bug arrives from the moon, Kajet flings Kirb's damaged model into Sanctuary, where Alpha finds him unstable and unconscious.
==Personality==
Kirbopher aims to enjoy himself in TOME, choosing not to get involved in 'drama' that he considers pointless. He's shown to be very hyperactive, short-tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied by his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10. Though he's snarky and sarcastic towards his friends, and can get annoyed with them sometimes (especially Nylocke), he is shown to care deeply about them, and has a sensitive side that he seems to prefer not to show.
Throughout the series, he is shown to have a tendency of taking his anger/frustrations out on other people. From Episode 1, he decides to defeat Rockoon, despite the other already running away, out of frustration that the hacker isn't following his (Zetto's) orders.
It's also implied that Kirbopher has issues controlling his jealousy. In Episode 5, he's clearly envious of the newfound attention that Alpha receives following his defeat of the hackers, responding poorly to the compliments Flamegirl gives the other. He is also jealous of the attention that Alpha gives her. In the fact bubble for Episode 5, it's stated that he is "very attached" to Alpha as a friend<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlbwGkbWLg</ref>, and within the episode, he insults Flamegirl her by calling her a cougar, seemingly implying that he wants her to back off of the other.
As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, offering up the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. Though he probably does wish could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in [[Plan Z|Short #7]] that the 'Kirbopher' account was created to as an escape from his search for the Forbidden Power, and to enjoy TOME for how it should've been, just hanging out with his friends.
He has a tendency to talk to himself.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
[[File:Kirb_with_friends.jpg|thumb|left|188px|Kirbopher challenges Alpha to another match.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Kirbopher and Alpha are very good friends, and seem to have known each other for quite a while. Kirbopher sees Alpha as a friendly rival to test his skills against, though sometimes he gets jealous of the amount of attention Alpha gets. In the latter half of season 1, however, they become rather distant from each other ever since Alpha unintentionally hurt him with the Forbidden Power in episode 5. After an argument with Flamegirl, Kirbopher feels bad for how he acted and wants to apologize. In Infectuation, Alpha is relieved that Kirbopher is all right, but Kirbopher gets upset when Alpha says that Flamegirl is his partner for the Gemini Tournament as he thought his plan would've gone smoother. Later on in the season, he seem to be even more distant from the group because of the circumstances with the Forbidden Power.<br /><br />Fortunately, by the events of the second season, Alpha has moved on from the Gemini Tournament conflicts, and insists that Kirbopher join the group on the Challenge of the Netkings quest. Things are back to normal until Episode 13, where Kirb and Alpha's conflicting goals and views cause them to separate once again.
[[File:Kirb_with_nylocke.jpg|thumb|right|188px|Kirb with Nylocke in the mansion.]]
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Although Nylocke and Kirbopher tend to get along with each other pretty well, Nylocke is the one who Kirbopher shows aggravation at the most out of anyone else. However, when Kirbopher is feeling upset in episode 6, he immediately goes to Nylocke for help, even though Nylocke is unable to give him a straight answer. Kirbopher even considered asking Nylocke to be his partner if his plan didn't turn out as he hoped.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': Kirbopher and Flamegirl are good friends but before he seemed to generally dislike Flamegirl. There are times where he insults her about her feelings for Alpha, and because of that they often get into fights and arguments with each other. They disagree on several things, such as whether or not their time in TOME should be spent fighting hackers instead of playing the game like normal. In season 2 however, their relationship has gotten better but they still tease each other in a more playful manner.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Due to his quiet nature, Gamecrazed has not had much interaction with Kirbopher. In episode 2, Kirbopher and Nylocke attempt to tail Gamecrazed in order to learn more about him. The attempt is foiled, however, when Splat attacks the mansion. Gamecrazed was also the first person Kirbopher talks to after his fallout with Alpha and Flamegirl, and it is hinted that Gamecrazed may be privy to Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]].
*'''[[Archy]]''': Kirbopher tolerates Archy at best and outright insults him at worst. Although not stated, it is implied that Archy has been following him for quite some time, causing Kirbopher to become rather annoyed when he appears. Archy becomes his Gemini partner only because Kirbopher's other choices (Alpha and Nylocke) were taken.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher is an alternative account of Zetto. It was through Kirbopher that Zetto was able to monitor Alpha's condition. There are several occasions where Kirbopher logs in both as Zetto and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposely let Kirbopher take Zetto's Breaker Beam in order to continue through the Gemini Tournament as Zetto; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually log himself in as Zetto to confront Alpha and the [[Forbidden Power]]. After a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control, his body badly damaged.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Although Kirbopher does not actively fight the hackers, his accidental encounter with Rockoon has caused the two to have a mutual aversion to each other. However, in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], he seems to be sympathetic towards Rockoon after he witnesses Rockoon's fallout with [[Skeight]]. This may be due to him seeing the kind of trouble that occurs when a person uses two characters at the same time without admitting they are the same person.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Spin Slash''': An aerial cutting attack in which the user spins rapidly into a powerful cut. This technique can be turned into a Shockwave upon finishing.
*'''Ice Knives''': A projectile attack where a swarm of sharp icicles spread out from a slash of the user’s weapon.
*'''Dust Tornado''': A slow, but forceful projectile attack that can entrap the opponent and allows for a swift follow-up combo.
*'''Shockwave''': A powerful attack that travels along the ground and trips up the opponent upon impact.

==Trivia==
*Kirbopher and TOME in general make allusions to the number "11" in some shape or form.
**The release date for [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]] was 11-11-11, and the end of the original About TOME trailer showed Kirbopher running up and slicing the date in half.
**In the original ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Kirbopher was named "Kirbopher15". 15 is 1111 in binary.
**In Episode 10, the time when Alpha arrives at Balanstadium to meet Zetto is 11:11:11.
**Episode 11 shows Kirbopher's player ID is 001-501-111.
*During Episode 11 of ''TV TOME Adventures'', in which [https://kirbopher15.deviantart.com/art/Tsuzuku-14427657 Tsuzuku] (who would become [[Tsuzuku]] in TOME) would repeatedly call Kirbopher15 "Kirbofour15".
**This was also referenced in the [[April Fools Special]] short, in which a spoofed version of Kirbopher15 appears, named Kirbo4.
* His design seems to be loosely inspired by [[w:c:zelda:Link|Link]] from ''[[w:c:zelda:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
*Chris Niosi, along with Alpha's voice actor Blake Swift, sings TOME's first season main theme ("[[Battle On!]]").
*Kirbopher's height is somewhat inconsistent. He is clearly the shortest of the others, but in some scenes, he stands more than a foot shorter than his friends, and in other shots he is almost as tall as Alpha or Flamegirl.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in Episode 10 and Plan Z, clues were dropped throughout The Gemini Tournament arc and Episode 10 to indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person.
**Both Zetto and Kirbopher were interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher stood immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
**With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
** Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines are both, "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say, "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!"
**As Webmaster stated at the end of Episode 10, players who left the game without logging off remained in the game with their eyes turned grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after losing to Alpha after being controlled by the Forbidden Power, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Another clue exclusive to the "Kirbopher" account is in Episode 7 he hears Demon Alpha's scream and panics a bit, also telling Archy to get lost, implying that he already knows about the Forbidden Power.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor, although this was not revealed until Episode 10.
**Also, in Episode 1, during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.

'''Nylocke''', sometimes called "'''Nye'''", is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], a [[Swordsman]] with the power of ice. He is notable as a skilled fighter but also as a role player, who acts as the character his model pictures and almost never breaks this facade, regardless of the current situation. On very few occasions - usually, when he is shaken or feels the need, to be honest with someone - his true personality has broken through. His character model was created by [[Rubirules]] as a prize to the 1,111,111th player to dissimulate the code for the head of the [[Dragon Bug]].
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Nylocke is a role-player, a player who likes to pretend and act like the character that they play as. He has the habit of giving himself special titles; he will jump into the air and shout "Nylocke!" followed by a title relevant to the situation that generally begins with "Master of..." or "Dragon of...". He is good natured, extremely extroverted and very friendly towards any player he meets, going so far as to help complete strangers, such as [[Elescope]] and [[Hyprelynx]]. He is an old friend of [[Gamecrazed]], who was possibly the first user Nylocke met in TOME, and serves as a kind of older brother to [[Flamegirl]]. He tends to call male players "Sir (username)" and female players "Lady (username)," but notably, Nylocke frequently refers to [[Kirbopher]] as "squire" instead. He also frequently pronounces Kirbopher's name incorrectly, though he never means to annoy and eventually comes to correct himself later.
When he is faced with a battle, Nylocke usually acts focused and eager to test his abilities with sportsmanship, and views his opponents as fellow colleagues to have fun with, rather then competitors. When it comes to hackers, however, he displays a strong sense of furious justice, often referring to them as "vile" or "criminals."
In [[Dragon Drama]], it is also revealed that his real life is rough and being in character on TOME is one of the only times he really enjoys himself, which is why he rarely breaks character and prefers to block out anything that doesn't correspond to his idea of fun. This is the first of only a few times in the show that Nylocke breaks character, symbolized by black, reptilian pupils appearing in his eyes.
It is implied that Nylocke has attracted quite a following within the game's community itself due to his over-the-top performance, to the point that several players have deep ties to him. These include [[Serpentine]], a roleplayer who considers himself Nylocke's eternal rival after initially being rejected by him, and [[Demonking]], who was dissuaded from his job as a hacker through Nylocke's persuasion before eventually becoming a roleplayer himself. [[Whyti]] and Hyprelynx seem to admire Nylocke as well, imitating his famous "WHOOSH!" when dashing into a situation.
== Biography ==
====Official Notes====
''So, with this being a very popular character and the main source of comedy relief, I wanted to give special attention to the newly-christened "Nylocke". From the very first sketches I drew of his redesign, I had already come up with his new personality, based on that now-infamous pose of him shouting in the air "NYLOCKE! INSERT CLEVER MONIKER HERE!" (I later made it a rule to incorporate the word "Dragon" or "Master" into each title).
''Things didn't truly come together for him until I made the decision to cast Martin Billany (LittleKuriboh) to perform his voice, which believe it or not, he was NOT my first thought. Funnily enough, Blake Swift and Casey Mongillo (who later went on to voice Alpha and Gamecrazed, respectively) were amongst my earlier ideas for casting Nylocke, but once Martin's mish-mash of all his well-known character voices came together for Nylocke's voice, it almost seemed insane that I DIDN'T think of him first. I'll brag a little and say was a smart choice, because every recording session with Martin is an absolute joy when he's performing Nylocke. In the four episodes that have been completed as of this point, Nylocke's appeared in each one of them to some capacity for good reason.
''An old teacher of ours in High School often joked that Colin had attained enlightenment because of how calm he always was. In a way, I think Nylocke has attained the TOME-equivalent to enlightenment, in that he's a completely infallible, unbridled force of good. His player has found this balance of taking the game just seriously enough to be exceptional at it, even going so far as to try and stop the hackers that impede on his world, yet he still views the entire thing as a big game...NAY, an epic adventure, never breaking character so that he can live this incredible "story" to its fullest...at least in his own mind. I'm glad people love this character even more now; it's no wonder he ranked as the #1 fan favorite!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Nylocke-307962407</ref>
===Season 1===
Nylocke first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode]], announcing his entrance to [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Flamegirl]] who have been waiting for him. After [[Alpha]] and [[Kirbopher]] show up at the scene, Nylocke states that he will be heading off to combat the hackers again, and wants to see who will join him. Kirbopher declines, as per usual, and Alpha says he will think about it since there are a few hours before the fighters are going to meet up. After a final warning to Alpha not to be tempted by Flamegirl's "womanly wiles," Nylocke sets off to round up the remaining players who are going to fight. Upon arrival, the players are ambushed by [[Rockoon]] and [[Doubling]] who destroy everyone except Gamecrazed and Nye. Just as they rush in to start fighting, Alpha and Flamegirl arrive, surrounding the hackers. Alpha uses the Forbidden Power to injure the hackers and defeat them. Nylocke lauds Alpha for his brave fighting spirit.
In [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]], Nylocke sneaks up on Kirbopher, who has been tailing Gamecrazed through ;Lavendera. Nylocke admits that he, too, is very curious about Gamecrazed and will follow him as well. Upon reaching the Mansion, Nylocke shows some hesitation upon entering it but follows Kirbopher who rushes in first. The two eventually lose Gamecrazed within the Mansion's walls but stumble upon [[Asterob]], who demands that they leave, as the Mansion is not supposed to be seen by the public yet. In the middle of their conversation, [[Splat]] appears and traps Kirbopher and Nylocke in bubbles of goo and sends them up to the ceiling. Nylocke remains in this position throughout the subsequent quarrel between Splat and Gamecrazed, showing some perverted interest in the way the two fighters wrap around each other. Splat is eventually defeated, and Asterob gives the [[Drain Edge]] to Gamecrazed before pleading for the three to leave. Upon exiting, Nye and Kirb admit that following Gamecrazed to know more about him was probably the wrong idea, but Gamecrazed forgives them both and apologizes for not being more open with them.
Nylocke appears again in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]], viewing Alpha and [[Granda]]'s fight together. He admires Granda's enthusiasm but encourages her to go out and train more, much to her tantrum-filled chagrin. Alpha then receives a message from Flamegirl, asking him and Nye to meet her in ;Mechcity. The two agree and head off to meet her. On the way, Alpha tries to ask Nylocke for some relationship advice, but Nylocke remains his stalwart, Dragon Knight self. Upon arriving, Nylocke notices an explosion as [[Demonking]] begins attacking the city and immediately heads off to defend against him. He teams up with [[Whyti]], and together they use their ice powers to try and defeat him. Soon enough, Demonking asks them to stop fighting and admits that he just needs the money to go back to school. Nylocke admonishes him for using such destructive ways to get another chance at higher learning and offers him a chance to change his ways and become an upstanding player of TOME. Demonking reluctantly accepts and the two become friends. They then arrive at an alleyway just in time to see Alpha and Flamegirl almost having a moment, which they awkwardly interrupt.
Nylocke and company appear in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], preparing to head off on the group quest that they have accepted. Nylocke shows delight at seeing Gamecrazed join them, and recounts how impressed he was at seeing Flamegirl roleplay for the first time. After the details of the quest are recounted to the group, Nylocke and Flamegirl agree to go off in search of the "trial by fire" mentioned by the quest-giver. They arrive at a tree surrounded by five campfires, each representing one of the elements needed to defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol|Shadow Guard Beast]]. Before Nylocke can start to figure out the puzzle, he is tackled by Granda, still sore about her earlier battles. She beats Nylocke mercilessly and stalks off, all while Flamegirl solves the puzzle without so much as a glance at Nylocke's predicament.
Nylocke horrendously violated dragon with split ends, joins Flamegirl, and the two head back to the meeting spot, the idol's torso in hand. Once the others return, the group finds a convenient spot to wait for the moonlight to strike the idol. During this time, the group discusses having a group get-together. It is here where Flamegirl reveals that Nylocke is from England, mentioning that he once logged on drunk and accidentally mentioned his hometown of Knutsford, and Nylocke's comments hint that he may have been recovering from some sort of break-up. However, he declines to join them as he "cannot travel across the virtual plains to Californialand." The idol suddenly activates, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the beast, knocking Alpha out of the arena. The other four desperately try to defeat the boss, with no success until Alpha breaks into the battlegrid using the Forbidden Power. He reunites the beast with a piece of its ear, rendering it vulnerable. The group then uses their combined elemental powers to finish it off. Rockoon flees in the aftermath, and Nylocke celebrates the group's victory with a heartfelt embrace.
===Season 2===
==Abilities==
*'''Cold Steel: '''The user slashes their weapon to send out waves of sharp ice.
*'''Stalagmite Storm: '''The user summons a line of giant stalagmites that rise up from the ground and pierce the opponent's defenses.
*'''White Wind: '''A blizzard attack that pushes back the enemy and freezes them in solid ice when covering them for a certain amount of time.
*'''[[Drain Edge]]:''' An item attached to Nylocke's sword, capable of absorbing enemy attack to be later unleashed in a form of attack. It can be discharged partially for a minor shockwave or can be discharged fully to release a powerful beam. The capacity of the Drain Edge is considerably massive, as seen in [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], where the Drain Edge is capable of absorbing [[Zetto]]'s overcharged Breaker Beam; and in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], where the Drain Edge is shown to be capable of absorbing the entirety of the [[Forbidden Power]]. As of Episode 10, Nylocke tossed his Drain Edge away in hopes of disposing of the Forbidden Power and thus does not possess this item anymore.
==Trivia==
* Unlike the rest of the main cast, Nylocke's real name was never revealed.
* Nylocke's sword is called "Hoarfrost."<ref>https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=987879094605528&set=a.987878677938903</ref>
*Nylocke's ID number is 001-111-111.
**In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], his player number is incorrectly written as "111,111,111th player." His actual ID number was referenced many times in later episodes to correct this mistake.
*In an online poll hosted by Chris Niosi, Nylocke was voted as the character most liked by fans of the show.
*Nylocke was the final owner of the [[Drain Edge]], gaining it from Gamecrazed in Episode 6 before throwing it away at the end of Episode 10.
*Nylocke is likely one of the strongest players in TOME, as he only lost the Gemini Tournament by forfeiting to his [[Zetto|defeated opponent]].
*Nylocke is left-handed.
*Nylocke is tied with Kirbopher for most episode appearances, at 14 out of 15.
**Nylocke also appears in the most shorts, at 4 out of 7. In addition, two shorts, [[Nylocke's Day Off]] and [[The Legend of Nylocke]], are focused almost exclusively on him.
*The ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'' version of Nylocke, named Nailock, was voiced by his real-life inspiration, Colin "NailockGameSlave" Zabielski. He cameoed as the voice of Nylocke in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Nylocke's name comes from a corruption of his original voice actor's name. "Colin," spelled backwards, is "Niloc."
*According to Chris Niosi, the "Muscular Beaver" persona of Daggett Beaver from the Nickelodeon series, ''"The Angry Beavers''", was an influence on Nylocke's web series iteration, even using the characters' known battle cry "WHOOSH!"<ref>https://twitter.com/Kirbopher/status/595081216971317248</ref>

'''Gamecrazed''', often referred to as "GC," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]]. He is [[Morphological]] class with the power of shadow. He is a very quiet character, avoiding conversation whenever possible. He is closest to Nylocke out of all the other main characters. It was revealed in the season 2 finale that GC was the "shadow" of [[SOFDTI]], the artificial intelligence that TOME ran on. His screen name was actually the password to the door which protects the room in which SOFDTI sleeps deep within TOME.
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Gamecrazed generally appears as a very quiet, collected, and polite individual. A few times, characters have also described him as nice. He tends to stick with himself and often replies with a simple "hm" when spoken to in a conversation.
Whenever meeting in public is brought up between the gang, he usually tries to change the topic and usually appears uncomfortable with it. Since GC is revealed to be the "shadow" of SOFDTI in episode 15, he knows he can't meet them in real life and thus won't talk about meeting them in real life.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''With [Gamecrazed (TTA)|that]] in mind, changing GC in the way I did for TOME was actually a lot of pressure. In very early stages I envisioned him being the same as he was before (complete with [[Gamecrasher (TTA)|Gamecrasher]], who never got a redesign for the new series), but as I continued developing the dynamic of the main characters, I decided it would be better to make a few changes to GC.
''His design remained intact, with my only addition being the little control pad in place of a belly-button. I stripped GC of his sarcasm and attitude and gave it to Kirb, mainly because Kirb and Alpha's personalities were running a bit too close to each other. I amped up Alpha's shyness, gave Kirb an [sic] attitude and then focused on how Gamecrazed should be. I went with the "strong silent type" for GC as it proved to be better for the group dynamic.
''I had run into problems with TTA in that many of the main characters' personalities were way too similar. Granted, this can be the case with groups of friends that all think like-minded, but it's not interesting from a writing or entertainment perspective. My thought process for when GC talks in TOME is only when he is asked to respond (to show that he's trying to be as polite as possible) or speaks up of his own accord when it's of any importance.
''I think at first, people were either bored with him, or just didn't get exactly where he was coming from. [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 02]] helped shed some light on how good of an individual he is, then by the time [[Fraggedquest|Episode 04]] came out, it seemed like everyone "gets" him now. If there's one thing I regret, it's that I think I've made him come off as being invincible. He isn't, but I can see where people get that impression; I portray him more as just being very intelligent and strategic in every move he makes, but even he can't overcome someone that's just flat-out stronger than he is. I hope he'll continue to grow on people.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Gamecrazed-305764611</ref>
=== Season 1 ===
=== Season 2 ===
== Abilities ==
* '''Shadow Slash:''' A cutting attack, made from a slice of concentrated dark energy.
* '''Dark Bomb:''' Concentrated dark energy formed into an explosive ball that can be shot from the user's palm.
* '''Black Hand:''' The user temporarily transforms into a giant hand to perform more powerful physical attacks.
* '''Violet Thorn:''' The user wraps themselves around an enemy and squeezes, creating a flower-like pattern of spikes that protrude outward. This technique may risk damage to the user.
==Gallery==
==Trivia==
*Gamecrazed's ID number is 001-234-567. Strangely enough, in ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', his ID number is different. [[SOFDTI]], being the core of the game, likely chose this number when she created her character because she had seven parents, and probably manipulated the lottery in [[Year One|Episode 11]] so that her friends could meet them.
*Gamecrazed was the first owner of the [[Drain Edge]], which was given to him by [[Asterob]] in [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]]. He later gave the Drain Edge to Nylocke in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], who subsequently used it to seal away the [[Forbidden Power]] during the events of [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]].
*Gamecrazed's shoulder pads have the letters L and R, supposedly meaning "left" and "right". However, the right pad is on his left shoulder and the left pad is on his right shoulder, probably due to the fact that his body is mimicking a game system, where the users right is the systems left.
*By Nylocke's admission in Episode 12, Gamecrazed is stronger than all the other main characters, and may well be the best player of TOME. This is likely because Gamecrazed is the avatar of the game's core.
*Gamecrazed has never been shown logging in or out via the walls of TOME's world. Whenever he leaves, he usually just vanishes into the ground. A notable exception, however, is when the Netkings forcibly log the group out from HOME in [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] with a logout beam (although it is likely that Gamecrazed simply escaped back to the game's core before the beam was fired).
*Since the introduction of SOFDTI, several events hinted that Gamecrazed and SOFDTI were the same entity before the connection was officially confirmed during the events of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]].
**Both characters struggle with having relationships with other people and have to learn what friendship means.
**The two have similar designs: SOFDTI is pink while GC is purple, both have protrusions from their backs (although SOFDTI's are wings), both have similar face shapes, both have a rounded object on their forehead (SOFDTI's is an eye), and both have slime-like arms. Also, Gamecrazed's body type is notably feminine.
**In [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]], Gamecrazed knew exactly where the Mansion was and that there were plans to raid it that night. SOFDTI, as the game's program, would have knowledge of new constructions in the game. He/She was also able to easily render the hole that Splat left in the wall with no apparent use of tools or programs.
**Starting in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], Gamecrazed states that he "just can't" meet with the others outside of the game, and always becomes uncomfortable when the subject is brought up. SOFDTI, being the game's program, cannot possibly meet the players outside of the game.
**When the Forbidden Power possesses Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], Gamecrazed immediately recognizes the danger and tells the others to getaway. He is equally surprised when he finds that [[Zetto]] has defeated Alpha. SOFDTI, as the Power's creator, would know the full extent of its power.
**In Episode 06, even before Episode 10, it is hinted at that Gamecrazed is aware of Kirbopher's alter ego, as Kirbopher tells GC he needs advice on "approaching the others about-" before he is cut off by Nylocke. From the recent events of Episode 05, it can be easily assumed that he is asking for advice on making up with Alpha and Flamegirl, however, he could also be speaking about revealing to them his true identity. Throughout the same episode, Gamecrazed is constantly showing that he knows everyone's emotions, although he does say (although he could be lying) he is unaware of what Flamegirl or Alpha thinks about Kirbopher's earlier actions. When fighting Tigerlilly/Kizuna (whom he has known since she joined the Netkings), he tells her to "Just try and kill me. You'll find it... impossible." It is known (by Zetto telling Alpha in Episode 10) that the Forbidden Power cannot be deleted; and programs cannot be "killed" anyway. This loans more indications that the Forbidden Power being destroyed would harm SOFDTI as well, or vice versa. In this case, Gamecrazed would really be telling Kizuna that she can never destroy her or the Forbidden Power.
**Episode 10 reveals that Gamecrazed knows of Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]]. SOFDTI, having interacted with Zetto in the past, could know this.
**Gamecrazed refuses to go with the others on the infiltration mission in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]]. Nylocke is visibly shocked when he hears why. SOFDTI may have known that something might happen to her if the Forbidden Power is destroyed, or if the hackers get a hold of her power.
***Gamecrazed's explanation to Nylocke isn't heard, and it's never specified anywhere in the series.
**Gamecrazed and SOFDTI share the same voice actor, Casey Mongillo.
*The ''TV TOME Adventures'' version of Gamecrazed was voiced by Gregory Prytyka Jr. He made a cameo as the voice of Gamecrazed in the [[April Fools Special]].
*In episode 15, the password to SOFDTI's part of the world is GAMECRAZED.
*Despite speculations, Niosi confirmed that "Ryan" is not Gamesoft's deadname and that she kept the name as is after her transition, influenced by many of Niosi's LGBTQ+ friends who've done the same. This explains why Crashr always addressed her under that name and was a brief puzzled yet welcoming to refer to her as his sister.
*Gamesoft's IRL name "Ryan" may have been inspired by the deadname of the titular character from the webcomic ''Rain'' by Jocelyn Samara DiDomenick. The Chapter 4 scene where CrashR was confused when Softy was referred to as his "sister" may have also been a homage to one of the comics' issues from December 2012.<ref>http://rain.thecomicseries.com/comics/293/</ref>

'''Gamecrazed''', often referred to as "GC," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]]. He is [[Morphological]] class with the power of shadow. He is a very quiet character, avoiding conversation whenever possible. He is closest to Nylocke out of all the other main characters. It was revealed in the season 2 finale that GC was the "shadow" of [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]], the artificial intelligence that TOME ran on. His screen name was actually the password to the door which protects the room in which SOFDTI sleeps deep within [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]].
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Gamecrazed generally appears as a very quiet, collected, and polite individual. A few times, characters have also described him as nice. He tends to stick with himself and often replies with a simple "hm" when spoken to in a conversation.
Whenever meeting in public is brought up between the gang, he usually tries to change the topic and usually appears uncomfortable with it. Since GC is revealed to be the "shadow" of SOFDTI in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], he knows he can't meet them in real life and thus won't talk about meeting them in real life.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''With [Gamecrazed (TTA)|that]] in mind, changing GC in the way I did for TOME was actually a lot of pressure. In very early stages I envisioned him being the same as he was before (complete with [[Gamecrasher (TTA)|Gamecrasher]], who never got a redesign for the new series), but as I continued developing the dynamic of the main characters, I decided it would be better to make a few changes to GC.
''His design remained intact, with my only addition being the little control pad in place of a belly-button. I stripped GC of his sarcasm and attitude and gave it to Kirb, mainly because Kirb and Alpha's personalities were running a bit too close to each other. I amped up Alpha's shyness, gave Kirb an [sic] attitude and then focused on how Gamecrazed should be. I went with the "strong silent type" for GC as it proved to be better for the group dynamic.
''I had run into problems with TTA in that many of the main characters' personalities were way too similar. Granted, this can be the case with groups of friends that all think like-minded, but it's not interesting from a writing or entertainment perspective. My thought process for when GC talks in TOME is only when he is asked to respond (to show that he's trying to be as polite as possible) or speaks up of his own accord when it's of any importance.
''I think at first, people were either bored with him, or just didn't get exactly where he was coming from. [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 02]] helped shed some light on how good of an individual he is, then by the time [[Fraggedquest|Episode 04]] came out, it seemed like everyone "gets" him now. If there's one thing I regret, it's that I think I've made him come off as being invincible. He isn't, but I can see where people get that impression; I portray him more as just being very intelligent and strategic in every move he makes, but even he can't overcome someone that's just flat-out stronger than he is. I hope he'll continue to grow on people.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Gamecrazed-305764611</ref>

== Abilities ==
* '''Shadow Slash:''' A cutting attack, made from a slice of concentrated dark energy.
* '''Dark Bomb:''' Concentrated dark energy formed into an explosive ball that can be shot from the user's palm.
* '''Black Hand:''' The user temporarily transforms into a giant hand to perform more powerful physical attacks.
* '''Violet Thorn:''' The user wraps themselves around an enemy and squeezes, creating a flower-like pattern of spikes that protrude outward. This technique may risk damage to the user.

==Trivia==
*Gamecrazed's ID number is 001-234-567. Strangely enough, in ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', his ID number is different. [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]], being the core of the game, likely chose this number when she created her character because she had seven parents, and probably manipulated the lottery in [[Year One]] so that her friends could meet them.
*Gamecrazed was the first owner of the [[Drain Edge]], which was given to him by [[Asterob (TOME)|Asterob]] in [[Mansion Midnight]]. He later gave the Drain Edge to Nylocke in [[Dragon Drama]], who subsequently used it to seal away the [[Forbidden Power]] during the events of [[The Warring Demons]].
*Gamecrazed's shoulder pads have the letters L and R, supposedly meaning "left" and "right". However, the right pad is on his left shoulder and the left pad is on his right shoulder, probably due to the fact that his body is mimicking a game system, where the users right is the systems left.
*By Nylocke's admission in [[Secret of the Netkings]], Gamecrazed is stronger than all the other main characters, and may well be the best player of TOME. This is likely because Gamecrazed is the avatar of the game's core.
*Gamecrazed has never been shown logging in or out via the walls of TOME's world. Whenever he leaves, he usually just vanishes into the ground. A notable exception, however, is when the Netkings forcibly log the group out from HOME in [[Secret of the Netkings]] with a logout beam (although it is likely that Gamecrazed simply escaped back to the game's core before the beam was fired).
*Since the introduction of SOFDTI, several events hinted that Gamecrazed and SOFDTI were the same entity before the connection was officially confirmed during the events of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]].
**Both characters struggle with having relationships with other people and have to learn what friendship means.
**The two have similar designs: SOFDTI is pink while GC is purple, both have protrusions from their backs (although SOFDTI's are wings), both have similar face shapes, both have a rounded object on their forehead (SOFDTI's is an eye), and both have slime-like arms. Also, Gamecrazed's body type is notably feminine.
**In [[Mansion Midnight]], Gamecrazed knew exactly where the Mansion was and that there were plans to raid it that night. SOFDTI, as the game's program, would have knowledge of new constructions in the game. They were also able to easily render the hole that Splat left in the wall with no apparent use of tools or programs.
**Starting in [[Fraggedquest]], Gamecrazed states that he "just can't" meet with the others outside of the game, and always becomes uncomfortable when the subject is brought up. SOFDTI, being the game's program, cannot possibly meet the players outside of the game.
**When the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] possesses Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast]], Gamecrazed immediately recognizes the danger and tells the others to getaway. He is equally surprised when he finds that [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] has defeated Alpha. SOFDTI, as the Power's creator, would know the full extent of its power.
**In [[Dragon Drama]], even before [[The Warring Demons]], it is hinted at that Gamecrazed is aware of [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]'s [[Zetto (TOME)|alter ego]], as Kirbopher tells GC he needs advice on "approaching the others about-" before he is cut off by Nylocke. From the recent events of [[Awaken the Beast]], it can be easily assumed that he is asking for advice on making up with Alpha and Flamegirl, however, he could also be speaking about revealing to them his true identity. Throughout the same episode, Gamecrazed is constantly showing that he knows everyone's emotions, although he does say (although he could be lying) he is unaware of what Flamegirl or Alpha thinks about Kirbopher's earlier actions. When fighting [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]]/[[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]] (whom he has known since she joined the [[Netking Software|Netkings]]), he tells her to "Just try and kill me. You'll find it... impossible." It is known (by Zetto telling Alpha in ''The Warring Demons'') that the Forbidden Power cannot be deleted; and programs cannot be "killed" anyway. This loans more indications that the Forbidden Power being destroyed would harm SOFDTI as well, or vice versa. In this case, Gamecrazed would really be telling Kizuna that she can never destroy her or the Forbidden Power.
**Episode 10 reveals that Gamecrazed knows of Kirbopher's [[Zetto (TOME)|secret]]. SOFDTI, having interacted with Zetto in the past, could know this.
**Gamecrazed refuses to go with the others on the infiltration mission in [[The Infiltration Mission]]. Nylocke is visibly shocked when he hears why. SOFDTI may have known that something might happen to her if the Forbidden Power is destroyed, or if the hackers get a hold of her power.

'''Zetto''' (born '''Zeke'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>) is a main character in the TOME series. Introduced as an arrogant fighter solely seeking strong opponents, he antagonizes [[Alpha]] and his friends, acting cold and objectifying their struggles with the Forbidden Power for his own amusement. It's eventually revealed that he was formerly Netking Number 6, and was responsible for beta testing TOME's battle system during development. After the creation of the Forbidden Power, he and [[Kizuna]] disbanded from the Netkings and went on to form [[D-Buggers.org]] per [[Rubirules]]'s suggestion. He used the hackers Kizuna hired and attacked Alpha himself in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power and eventually contain it.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], [[Kirbopher]] is revealed to be his alternate account.
==Appearance==
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''One of the very first ideas I came up with all the way back at the beginning of the TOME "remake" concept was having [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] and Zetto, in this version of the story, be the same player using different accounts ("multiboxing" I believe is the term for that). It was an idea that I thought was just crazy enough to work and found it to be one of the most exciting prospects of writing the story.
''Instead of a power-hungry lunatic obsessed with being good at a video game, I had instead come up with a multi-layered character placed in an unintentional antagonistic position. To [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] and our heroes, the hackers (and by extension, [[D-buggers.org|the one hiring them]]) are the enemy, causing problems and putting people in danger because of the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]]. In reality, Zetto and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]] (who took on Zetto's role as the hacker boss "[[Voltarius (TTA)|Voltarius]]") were working together to try and covertly find this virus they were familiar with and erase it, so people like Alpha wouldn't be harmed by it.
''I kept Zetto's confidence and pride, but kept him very vague and mysterious...then, when the twist was revealed that he and Kirb were in fact the same person on different accounts, you could believe it. The player behind Zetto created the Kirbopher account for the purpose of just purely enjoying TOME as a game and having fun with the new friends he made...but tragically, those same friends got wrapped up in the whole mess he was setting out to prevent. Having the full context behind Zetto's motivation at the end of the season, you can understand the struggle he goes through under the guise of Kirb; caught between wanting to make his friends happy and having to fulfill a solemn and desperate mission he set out to accomplish with Kizuna's help. Illustrating this mysterious "double life" was definitely one of the biggest driving forces behind doing the show, overall.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Zetto-423321319</ref>
===Episode 00: /FILE:ZERO===
Zetto, alongside Kizuna, was the youngest in the team of seven developers hired by publisher [[Plan.Net]] to create TOME. He was mostly a play-tester charged with helping on the game's unique battle system. It was thus his task to test the intended first boss battle of TOME, the Shadowguard Beast.
However, in creating TOME, the Netkings accidentally gave birth to a sentient virtual being known as [[SOFDTI]] who could translate emotions and thoughts, both conscious and unconscious, into data, and helped them bring the game to fruition. SOFDTI was exposed to the whole spectrum of human emotion but could not tolerate its negativity, and spawned a defect that infected the Beast, granting it the power to influence human thoughts and perception and push them to the negative. When launching himself at the beast, Zetto's arm was brutally sliced and he felt the pain of this injury.
After this, the player behind Zetto designed another avatar for himself, called Kirbopher, in order to play the game free of the stress linked to this traumatic event. However, he was soon approached by Rubirules to hunt down the virus SOFDTI has spawned, and his trauma caused him to be easily influenced into joining this quest. Although he was involved in this mission, he let Kizuna physically handle most of it throughout the beginning of the story.
=== Season 1 ===
[[File:Zetto64.png|thumb|Zetto after defeating two random players in Mechcity with a single blast.]]
Zetto is first seen in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], appearing in Mechcity meeting with two Tome users. heires up a Ki-Blast and defeats them both, and takes down Demon Alpha with ease as the latter tries hard to defeat him. Acting impressed by Alpha's power, he asks for a true challenge in the Gemini Tournament, indulging in his revenge over the entity who caused him this unforgettable pain. His meetup plan still aims, however, to secure an occasion to deal with the virus inside Alpha.
He does indeed participate in the tournament alongside Kizuna - after failing to convince Alpha to partner with Kirbopher - who accepts this as a "favor", that should not take her long to complete anyway. Though he intends for it to allow him to "decompress" after the Forbidden Power's influence over Alpha has worsened and his relationships with close friends under the alias of Kirbopher have strained, his plan to contain the Power within Asterob's shield fails, and killing Neomutant and Dustbunny isn't enough for him to calm down.
During the semifinals, Zetto is disappointed in Alpha's lack of will to fight him as hard as he desires. To encourage him to brighten up, Alpha and [[Flamegirl]] decide to forfeit the match ; however, during his final battle against [[Nylocke]] and [[Gamecrazed]], Zetto finally lashes out against the former, which elicits from him a speech much in the same spirit as Alpha's words, before he decides to forfeit that match as well. With the Gemini Tournament over and won by him, Zetto understands that his attempts to run away from his mission are fruitless, and decides to go to the point, dropping his cocky persona.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto messages and confronts Alpha in an attempt to extract the Forbidden Power from him and get rid of it once and for all. When Alpha meets him, he briefs him about the fact that the virus may not be erased, but merely contained ; his poor choice of words awakens Demon Alpha once more. Grabbing Alpha by the neck, he drains the Power out of him, but fails to complete the process, and his arm gets destroyed, the Power leaking into him instead, transforming him into Demon Zetto. He fights with Alpha for a period of time, and during his last few seconds of stable mind as Zetto, he says "Kill...me..." before proceeding to knock Alpha down and finish him off.
Before he can make the final blow, Flamegirl kicks him in the back of the head,triggering the purple flame response, as Nylocke pierces him with his sword with the [[Drain Edge]] attached. The Forbidden Power, weakened by the antivirus and taken aback, is drained from him, causing him to collapse. After everyone has left, the Webmaster of TOME arrives and carries Zetto's body to the Heavens of Magical Expertise, in which he states that Zetto was very badly damaged. [[Kinderspirit]] points out that Zetto's eyes are grayed out, and that he must have unhooked himself from the game without logging out first. [[Webmaster]] comments "I wonder why...?" before the camera switches to Kirbopher looking at the crater Zetto's body was in, a gloomy expression on his face
===Season 2===
[[File:Zetto_season_2.png|thumb|Zetto's appearance in season 2.]]
Zetto reappears briefly in [[Year One|Episode 11]], conversing with [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]]. It is unknown what happened after he was taken to HOME, but sometime before the episode he updated his character model, giving him purple clothing, a metal breastplate, and a much larger mechanical arm on his left hand, replacing the one that was destroyed during [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. His personality has changed radically, as, even though he still tells Kizuna that cares just as much about playing the game as protecting the people in it, he acts noticeably less cocky and self-assured, and comes across as more secluded and focused than before.
In [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], a little while after Rubirules mockingly impersonates him, in part to offend Kirbopher, in front of the party of Challenge of the Netkings fighters, Zetto's identity as a Netking and battle system tester is revealed. Knowing that he was part of the Netkings, Alpha understand that the Netkings are undoubtedly aware the Forbidden Power exists, and angrily demands them explanations, only for Kajet's awakening to interrupt their meetup. At the end of the episode and after Alpha's gang is logged out forcefully by [[Webmaster]], Zetto appears in the Moon, informing Kizuna that the Netkings will be making their move on the Forbidden Power the next day. When he asks Kizuna what the plan is, she states that they are "officially out of time", and that she needs to make some "very important calls", which are to Rubirules, Neomutant and Oddball, to orchestrate a plan for the Dragon Bug pieces to come to the Moon for immediate construction.
In [[Episode 0]], Zetto's past with Kajet is explored. He and Kizuna are seen playing around with each other, Zetto lacking his signature gun arm. [[SOFDTI]] mentions that they have strong feelings for each other, which causes Kizuna to have an outburst which Zetto tries to calm her down from. This is SOFDTI's first exposure to strong negative feelings. Later, he is seen fighting against Kajet, however due to the Forbidden Power, his arm gets cut off and he is prematurely logged out due to the pain.
During [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto doubts the necessity of his and Kizuna's actions, while Kizuna affirms this is their only chance. When Nylocke is delivered to him, he turns him into the Dragon Bug head, saying that they just need to activate the power source. He also turns Flamegirl into the power source, before revealing himself to Alpha. He explains that their objective is to erase the Forbidden Power permanently and tells him he should have stayed out of this while he had the chance - as his coming to the moon was unnecessary, which he tried to warn him about while on Kirbopher's account - and that they can't be stopped now. However, when Flamegirl is turned into the power source, she contorts and groans, unlike Nylocke's instantaneous shift, which makes Zetto understand things are not going as planned. He tries to shut Dragon Bug down, but it fails. He shoots at it with his arm cannon, but the dragon defeats him and he is logged out on this account.
In Episode 15, after his attempt to combat Kajet with Kirbopher leaves the latter permanently damaged, he logs back into TOME using his administration privileges, coincidentally right next to where Alpha fell from the moon, reflecting on the time Rubirules recruited him. A moment later, Alpha stares at him, and realizes in a flash of lucidity who he really is. Lashing out at him, he angrily asks him why he "did it", to which Zetto tears up and tries to make Alpha understand he "just wanted to help everybody" and that "he let it get out of hand". Immediately after, the Dragon Bug and Kajet kill each other. Zetto, Kizuna and Alpha get closer to the battlefield only to see that the two are nothing but meaningless data anymore. He tries and fails to justify himself, only to see Rubirules fall from the sky and encase the Forbidden Power and Purple Flame.
As Rubirules finally lets everyone in on his actual intent - use the Power to control SOFDTI, rather than erase it - Zetto tries to stop him by saying that Flamegirl is not responding at all, and could possibly have brain damage. Rubirules, as part of Neomutant's plan, does not believe him; therefore, Zetto chooses to jump down and follow him to redeem his bad deeds, though he openly confesses to Kizuna, who follows him alongside Alpha, that he doesn't have a plan.
His words fail to convince Rubirules once more. After Kizuna is knocked out by him, he attempts to use his improved mechanical arm to absorb the Forbidden Power. Raw as it is in Rubirules's crystal, it only causes him immense pain, and he has to reluctantly agree to Alpha coming into contact with Kajet's spirit for the last time
Alpha eventually defeats Rubirules, but as SOFDTI contemplates how his love allowed for the Forbidden Power to be erased after all, KIzuna points her gun at her, angrily blaming her for everything that has happened to her and Zetto. She openly confesses her love for him as she says SOFDTI "could have taken him away" from her. Zetto, fully aware that she is wrong, decides to kick her out of the game by shooting her.
In the aftermath of Rubirules' defeat, Zetto adresses Webmaster for a wish he and his friends had for winning the Challenge of the Netkings. After burying Kirbopher in the forest of ;Lavendera, Zetto's player meets up with Alpha's, Nylocke's, and Flamegirl's, in Burbank, California, the latter's hometown.
==Personality==
Because of his involvement in the game's development as the combat tester, Zetto takes the fighting aspect of TOME very seriously, challenging practically every player he meets to a battle. His character was made with the inner workings of the battle system in mind, and utilizes his powers to a greater extent than most other players. He is, understandably, very confident in his combat capabilities because of this, and defeats nearly all of his opponents with ease. His obsession with battle can become one of the more negative aspects of his personality, though, and he can struggle to find any enjoyment in the game unless he is winning or his competition is serious. In Episode 12, Nylocke realizes that Zetto's outburst at the Gemini Tournament in [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]] was probably caused by Nylocke's light-hearted attitude towards a world that Zetto spent months creating.
In Season 2, his personality is noticeably different, with his cool, confident facade seemingly slipping following the events of Episode 10. He is even more determined than before. However, his fragility is greater. With the crisis ramping up in intensity, he grows more and more aware of the possibility of failure, and feels very powerless in the face of danger. He seems to be on his way to resolve his trauma with the defeat of Kajet.
Zetto is shown to have good intentions overall; from the start, he regrets hiring Rockoon and Doubling after they destroy ;Lavendera, and unlike Rubirules, he has no wish to utilize the Forbidden Power for anything, simply wanting to destroy it. These good intentions are hard to piece together, though, because Zetto's player takes a theatrical liking to his power and happily plays the part of a fearsome anti-hero for our protagonists. While focused on his mission, he takes every opportunity to enjoy himself in ways that, at best, leave him angry and unsatisfied, and at worst, slow down his progress. Furthermore, his trauma regarding the Forbidden Power seems to get in the way of his judgement; while he wants to prevent anyone else from being hurt by the virus, he himself puts his friends in harm's way in order to destroy it. When Alpha questions why he did so in Episode 15, he can't really give a satisfactory answer, stating that he "just wanted to help everyone" and repeatedly apologizing. It's clear that he cares deeply for other people, but his emotions get the best of him. They are deeply conflicted, and as Plan Z reveals, he feels guilty and cowardly for not revealing his identity to his friends, but he still decides to keep his personas separate anyways, likely because he believes it will aid his mission in the end.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher was an alternate account of Zetto, designed first and foremost to distance himself from the horror of the Forbidden Power. As things turned out, however, Kirbopher ended up meeting Alpha, whose body became the host of the virus, and so it was through this account that Zetto had to watch its evolution unfold, slowly destroying any opportunity he had to enjoy the game for what it was. There are several occasions where Zetto logs in both as Kirbopher and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposedly let Kirbopher takes his Breaker Beam in order to continue through the gemini tournament; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually logs himself as Zetto to confront Alpha and his [[Forbidden Power]], after a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control. Zetto continues to use Kirbopher afterwards until he attempts to take down Kajet with him in Episode 14, which results in irreversible corruption of the model.
*'''[[Kizuna|Kizuna]]''': Zetto and Kizuna are long-time acquaintances and reluctant lovers. Their relationship has been described by Niosi as "all kinds of messed up", as the two of them are people who deal with their feelings very poorly. They are the driving force of [[D-Buggers.org]] and carry out the construction of the [[Dragon Bug]], scheduling Hacker missions to further it. At the end of the first season, they battle alongside each other in the Gemini Tournament, defeating all of their competitors with little difficulty while acting rather sarcastically towards each other, eventually reaching the finals, where they face off against Nylocke and Gamecrazed. They are victorious in this battle, only because Nylocke forfeits. It is strongly hinted at in [[Episode 0]] that Zetto did, or still does, have feelings for her. However, when Kizuna breaks down in front of [[SOFDTI]] in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] and attempts to destroy her out or sheer rage for the tragedies they have experienced, Zetto silently shoots her to force her out of the game, to which she tears up, having finally expressed open love for him to the AI. Kizuna does not appear in the real-life meetup of Zetto and his friends, and the future of their bond is unknown.
===Enemies===
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha vs Demon Zetto.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Zetto first battles Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], when the latter is terrorizing [[Mechcity]] under the influence of the Forbidden Power. Despite defeating Alpha, Zetto acts impressed by his abilities in combat, challenging him to fight in the Gemini Tournament, despite knowing full well his power is a threat to eliminate. When they finally face each other in the tournament, Zetto and Kizuna win the battle by default when Alpha and Flamegirl forfeit, simply in light of how little fun Zetto has. In The Warring Demons, Zetto confronts Alpha about the Forbidden Power and when Alpha is possessed by it once again, Zetto vows to get rid of it once and for all. He continues to hide his identity to Alpha until he realizes it himself in Episode 15. Due to the urgency of the situation, Zetto chooses to redeem himself by teaming up with Alpha and Kizuna to take down Rubirules.
==Abilities==
*'''Ki Generator''': Infinite spirit energy that the player can charge and release in explosive bursts.
*'''Ki Blade''': A blade made of energy that can morph and extend to different shapes by the user's will.
*'''Shiftarm''': A transforming arm that can shift between a cannon, a chain-link and a machine gun.
**'''The Anti-Virus Prototype''': The earlier version of Flamegirl's Anti-Virus installed in Zetto's Shiftarm, which also acts as a counter-measure against the [[Forbidden Power]]. Alhough it cannot defeat the virus, it can protect Zetto from its attacks.
*'''Breaker Beam''': A powerful attack that must be charged for a great amount of time, but releases a beam that covers the entire length of the battlefield. He can unleash an intentionally overcharged beam, but it will short-circuit his mechanical arm for a period of time.
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Zetto/Gallery]]</big>''
==Trivia==
*Zetto is featured on the cover of the Smooth Jazz version of "[[Battle On!]]", which [[Kirbopher]]'s voice actor sings, possibly an allusion to their sharing identities.
*Before the reveal in [[Episode 0]] about Zetto's history with the [[Forbidden Power]], there were various clues left throughout the ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]'' series.
**Before [[Alpha]] transforms in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto says, "It's taken longer than I wanted...but I finally have the means to extract it...and contain it. ''This time...for good!''" implying that he's tried to contain it before and failed.
** He also says, "Do you hear me in there, you monster?! ''I haven't forgotten... and I'll make sure you never hurt ANYONE ELSE!''" implying the Forbidden Power did something to him in the past.
**[[File:QuickFlashbackZetto.png|thumb|The flashback image of Zetto during The Warring Demons.]]Moments before Zetto attempts to extract the Forbidden Power from Alpha, Zetto is seen from Alpha's point of view. The screen rapidly flickers between the current Zetto and his character model from before Kajet cut off his arm.
** The Forbidden Power says through Alpha's head, "I want him to suffer all over again".
**Episode 12 strongly hints that Zetto had a large role in developing or testing the Forbidden Power before it was hidden away.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] and [[Plan Z]], clues were dropped throughout the Gemini Tournament arc and the beginning of the episode that indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person. Reasons include:
**Both being interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher standing immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
** With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
**Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines were both "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!". This line is the one that allows Alpha to piece his identity together
**As the [[Webmaster]] stated at the end of Episode 10, players who leave the game without logging off remain in the game, with their character model's eyes turning grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after being stabbed by Nylocke, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor; this was hidden to the public by a pseudonym until Episode 10.
**In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.
**Zetto's old character design is similar to Kirbopher's 3rd character design. The version of Kirbopher that appears in ''TOME'' is the 4th character design.
*Zetto is the Japanese name for the letter Z, the last letter of the [[wikipedia:Latin alphabet|Latin alphabet]]. This contrasts with Alpha, whose name is the first letter of the [[wikipedia:Greek alphabet|Greek alphabet]], as the two characters are portrayed as relative opposites.
*Zetto's Breaker Beam attack is derived from ''[[w:c:mario:Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Super Mario RPG]]'', which heavingly influenced the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]] of the series.
*The character Lord Zett, from Chris Niosi's original series ''Super Freakin' Parody Rangers'', is based off of the design for Zetto from the TOME precursor series, ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He is also voiced by Niosi.
* Zetto's design for [[Episode 0]] is most likely a callback to his design in ''TV TOME Adventures''.
* The font that Zetto uses through the series is called "Kinglify".<ref>https://www.tumblr.com/moonlightchronicle/152251904868/whats-the-name-of-the-font-used-for-zetto-on-the</ref>
*Zetto, alongside [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]], are playable characters in the [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo Switch|Nintendo Switch]] game ''[[w:c:combat-core:Combat Core|Combat Core]]'', making them the only two ''Terrain of Magical Expertise'' characters to appear in a non-TOME based video game project. Niosi reprised his role from the original series.
*According to Chris Niosi, [[w:c:dragonball:Vegeta|Vegeta]] from the ''[[w:c:dragonball:Dragon Ball (franchise)|Dragon Ball]]'' franchise was a large influence on Zetto's character design and personality, to the point where the character was very derivative of him in the original ''TV Tome Adventures'' incarnation. Coincidentally, [[wikipedia:Eric Vale|Eric Vale]] (whom voiced Zetto in the RPG) frequently voices Vegeta's son, [[w:c:dragonball:Future Trunks|Trunks]], throughout the English version of the franchise.

'''Kizuna''' (born '''Lily'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>) is a major character in TOME. Kizuna was formerly Netking Number 7, who was responsible for bug-testing the game, but after the [[Episode 0|original incident]] with the [[Forbidden Power]], she and her partner, [[Zetto]], split off from the Netkings. She acts as the administrator of D-Buggers.org, disguising herself under her alternate armored form, Tigerlilly. She is an [[Animalistic]] character with the power of sharpshooting.
==Appearance==
[[File:Tome kizuna.png|150px|thumb|left]]Kizuna has three different forms. Her standard form is humanoid, with long red-brown hair in a large low ponytail and a multipurpose pistol. Her season 1 design features a navy poncho and skirt, a light grey bodysuit underneath, and matching light grey arm gloves and knee-high boots. She also wears a brown belt with a pistol holster. Her season 2 design is similar, but has a redder palette overall; the navy poncho and skirt are absent from her design, and her light grey bodysuit is instead dark red.
Her second "legal" form is a small red cat; in season 1, her cat form dons a green collar with a golden bell and a matching tail band, while in season 2, both turn gold. Her third form is a hacked version of her "Beast Armor" ability, named Tigerlilly. This form is a quadrupedal mechanical beast with large claws, 4 green eyes, and some cat-like qualities, such as small triangular ears. It is noticeably larger than other players.
== Personality ==
Kizuna has little character development over the series, but she is shown to be able to focus intently on one task without letting other things distract her. For example, her participation in the Gemini Tournament with Zetto was nothing more to her than a favor, since it was just part of the plan to get the Forbidden Power. This can lead her to be curt and narrow-minded at times, as she sees her goals as the most important at any moment in time. While she is patient, having to wait several weeks to let certain schemes play out, she gets frustrated easily when something goes awry.
Based on her behavior in Episode 15, it can be concluded that Kizuna's cold and detached attitude stems from her desire to keep Zetto safe, and her insecurities around having her feelings exposed. She gets increasingly upset when she says that SOFDTI could very easily release another virus that could hurt Zetto or cause him to go crazy trying to get rid of it, showing a more emotional and paranoid side of her that wishes to protect the one she cares about.
In Episode 00 (File: 00), it was revealed that Kizuna's personality used to be far more easygoing and lighthearted. After SOFDTI openly revealed her feelings for Zetto, she closed herself off and became irritable and frustrated, with her negative feelings only growing stronger after the incident with the Shadowguard Beast.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''I knew "[[Ruri (TTA)|Ruri]]" was a character I wanted to go in an entirely different direction with this time and I felt my idea was a better route to go in the long run. Changing her to a completely different entity, now known as "Kizuna" (Which means "bond" in Japanese, and also contains the word "Kizu" which means "scratch") I decided to have her be the employer of the various hackers seen throughout the show, hiring them for different tasks in an attempt to capture a mysterious item she names "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]". There was another equivalent character in TTA named "[[Voltarius (TTA)|Voltarius]]"; the hacker leader disguised in a powerful armored-suit.
''Using that basic idea, Kizuna is the player's original account and "[[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]]", the metallic cat-monster that attacks our heroes at certain moments, would be her disguise. In truth, she has hacked her "beast armor" technique to last for as long as necessary in order to keep herself hidden and protected when the situation calls. She also takes the form of a small cat when trying to be further discreet.
''Kizuna's cold and professional attitude made for a good foil to [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]'s smarminess and confidence; keeping him in line and showing an implied deep history between the two. Since she's been around since the beginning of TOME, having her be a purely-skilled player made it fun to animate her fight scenes with such limited attacks. There's a lot about her mysteriousness that makes it fun to try and figure out what she's thinking. While her "Kizuna attacks" are unchanged, her disguise, Tigerlilly, has two abilities that are hacked. The metallic cat was a design I had come up with years ago for another project and had a lot of fun drawing during its appearance. The sonic screech attack was also an interesting quirk; meant to be another technique Kizuna hacked to be so loud and tweaked that it could physically strain any surrounding players that hear it, in order to distract our heroes and rile up the forbidden power.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kizuna-423083520</ref>
=== Season 1 ===
Although Kizuna's first appearance as herself was in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|episode 8]], her first technical appearance was in [[Mansion Midnight]], as D-Buggers.org. This is her only "character" appearance until the Gemini Tournament begins. As D-Buggers.org, Kizuna gives the six hackers different jobs to work towards capturing the Forbidden Power. Her first appearance in her cat form is in [[Highest Form of Flattery|episode 3]], walking past The Platform while [[Saturndiva]] and [[Whyti]] are chatting with [[Flamegirl]] about [[Alpha]].
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC.png|thumb]]
She then appears as Tigerlilly for the first time in [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]] while the main cast are training for the Gemini Tournament in ;Lavendera. Using her Sonic Screech, Tigerlilly riles up the Forbidden Power inside of Alpha, causing him to lose control. Demon Alpha attacks Tigerlilly; however, Kizuna disconnects from the game right before she's defeated, likely to avoid the pain the Forbidden Power would cause.
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC2.png|thumb]]Tigerlilly appears again in [[Dragon Drama|episode 6]], after [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Nylocke]] have successfully reunited [[Hyprelynx]] and [[Elescope]] in ;Mechcity. Tigerlilly leaps from the Moon and attacks the party, nearly defeating them, but she is defeated by Gamecrazed when he uses the [[Drain Edge]] to absorb her attacks. It is unknown why Tigerlilly appears in this episode, but it's most likely that she was attempting to steal the Drain Edge from Gamecrazed, planning to use it to seal the Forbidden Power away.
In episode 8, Kizuna appears in human form for the first time, acting as Zetto's partner for the Gemini Tournament. She has a casual demeanor throughout the tournament, easily defeating opponents and telling Zetto that the whole thing isn't a big deal for her. After taking out the [[Tsuzuku|Twin]] [[Shogun|Blades]], [[Kirbopher]], and Alpha and Flamegirl, Kizuna and Zetto reach the final round against Gamecrazed and Nylocke. The battle is very close, with both sides virtually matched, but Nylocke and Gamecrazed forfeit in order to make a point about fun. At the end of the episode, Kizuna is seen at the trophy ceremony, holding her side of the trophy with a frustrated look on her face.
=== Season 2 ===
[[File:KizunaCatSeason2.png|thumb]][[File:VirusHunt.png|thumb]]Kizuna reappears in [[Year One|Episode 11]] with a redder palette overall. She first appears in her cat form, overlooking the main cast as they take care of [[Odboll]] and complain to the moderators of ;Sanctuary. After that, she teleports to the Moon, where she has set up a monitor overlooking ;Sanctuary to search for the Forbidden Power after its disappearance in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. Zetto appears as well, and the two argue over how TOME isn't just a game, and that the Forbidden Power is a real threat. Kizuna believes it should be captured as a tool, but Zetto is fully convinced that the Forbidden Power must be destroyed. Later in the Episode, Kizuna can be seen in the Moon again, frustrated that she cannot find the Forbidden Power.
Kizuna appears again at the end of [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], once again in the Moon. Zetto arrives to tell her that the Netkings will be making their move the next day. When he asks her what to do, Kizuna tells him that she has to make some important calls.
The next time she appears is at the end of [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], where she is giving instructions to Odboll.
In [[Episode 0]], Kizuna appears with a different design that has aspects of both her season 1 design and season 2 design; her color scheme is the same as her season 1 design, but her hair is more like her season 2 design. Instead of her typical handgun, she wields a wooden staff. She is seen messing around with Zetto, teasing him playfully, when [[SOFDTI]] comments that they both have strong feelings for each other. Kizuna has an outburst at this, insulting SOFDTI and asking her to stay out of her head. She is there again when Zetto fights against the [[Kajet]], with [[Webmaster]] telling her to spot for bugs. She jokingly taunts Zetto, who sighs in response. When he attempts to fight Kajet, she notices the Forbidden Power entering it, and tries to stop Zetto from fighting it.
Her next appearance is in [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], where she is discussing with Zetto about whether or not they can pull off their plan. She guarantees that this is their only chance to strike, and that whatever the [[Netkings]] are going to try will not work. She says that they are almost ready to launch before heading down to make sure things run smoothly. When Alpha and [[Neomutant]] enter the hacker base, she attacks them as Tigerlilly. She manages to defeat Neomutant, but Alpha breaks her armor, and she flees in cat form. Later on, she drops down from the ceiling while Alpha and Flamegirl are talking, putting her handgun to Alpha's head. When the [[Dragon Bug]] activates and Flamegirl glows pink, she remarks that it 'isn't supposed to happen,' which Zetto affirms. She is shocked when Flamegirl is absorbed into the Dragon Bug, and watches as Zetto tries to shut it down, questioning what he is doing.
[[File:ThreateningSOFDTI.png|thumb]][[File:BreakingTigerlilly.png|thumb]]In Episode 15, Kizuna joins the group, woefully remarking that the Dragon Bug and Forbidden Power must have cancelled each other out. She helps in hunting down [[Rubirules]], and it's revealed that she's known he was behind it all, like Zetto. She is the first to pursue him, asking Zetto if he's coming with her. The two of them make it underground, but she is removed from the battle after she turns into Tigerlilly and her armor is broken by Rubirules. After his defeat by Alpha, Kizuna gets back up and attempts to kill SOFDTI. She says that SOFDTI will just read her mind again, and how she is a pest that needs to be destroyed. She says she is mad at her because she, due to creating the virus, almost took Zetto away from her. She tries to get SOFDTI to say her feelings for Zetto, but Zetto shoots her in the back to protect SOFDTI. Shocked, she looks back at him, before she is defeated.
== Abilities ==
[[File:SonicScreech.png|thumb]]
* '''Golden Bullet:''' Infinite ammo fired from the user's weapon. She is extremely skilled with her handgun and never misses.
* '''Cat-like Reflex:''' An agility-boosting power-up that combines with the user's physical attacks for deadly accuracy.
* '''Beast Armor:''' Creates a temporary metallic shell that slows the user's speed but increases their physical offense and defensive powers. This ability was hacked to last as long as needed for her mission.
* '''Sonic Screech:''' A powerful sound-wave attack that can cover a large area. This technique was hacked to be so loud that it could physically strain any surrounding players that hear it, often used as a distraction.
Kizuna also has the ability to change into a small cat; this is likely another hacked skill.

==Trivia==
*"Kizuna" means "bond" or "ties" in Japanese, foreshadowing her previously strong bond with Zetto. It also contains the word "Kizu" which means "scratch."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kizuna-423083520</ref>
**It also may be a wordplay on "Bisuna", the Iraqi Arabic word for "cat".
*Kizuna is the only known user with multiple identities on TOME that only has one account. "Tigerlilly" is a disguise created by Kizuna hacking her Beast Armor ability.
*Kizuna's pistol is called "Spellcheck."<ref>https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=987878754605562&set=a.987878677938903</ref>
*Kizuna's design in [[Episode 0]] is most likely a callback to the character she is based off in ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Ruri.
*Kizuna, alongside Zetto, are playable characters in the [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo Switch|Nintendo Switch]] game ''[[w:c:combat-core:Combat Core|Combat Core]]'', making them the only two ''Terrain of Magical Expertise'' characters to appear in a non-TOME based video game project.

==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''So, considering it was impossible to tell [[Rob* (TTA)|he]] was British at all, I decided to extrapolate on that and make it his focal point. I turned the dial up on his sheepishness way up and ended up with something quite endearing. “Asterob” (which is a cross between Asterisk + Rob) with his new look and personality was very heavily inspired by his new voice, Lawrence “MasakoX” Simpson, who we all often pick on for being the most overly-apologetic-yet-adorable Brit.
''Some of Rob’s new visual things I had come up with prior to casting, but the hat and glasses were definitely last-minute additions inspired by Masako to add to the timidness. His role this time wasn’t so different from TTA either: a programmer sub-contracted by the administrators to design and oversee production on the mansion built for [[;Lavendera]]. Since our heroes were able to find this “secret” under-construction area without much trouble, I chalked it up to Rob’s general clumsiness. This is one character revamp I’m proud of more so than the others.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Asterob-277574037</ref>
===Season 1===
Asterob first appears in [[Mansion Midnight]], during which he is working on completing the Mansion for the Webmaster. [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] and [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] encounter him in the Mansion while trailing [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]], who had entered the Mansion earlier. Asterob timidly demands that they leave, as the Mansion wasn't supposed to be accessed by any players yet. When Kirbopher and Nylocke refuse and start fighting, he reluctantly fights back using a shield that gradually stores up energy before releasing it in a powerful blast (which accidentally breaks a hole in one of the Mansion's walls). Before he could convince the two to leave, [[Splat (TOME)|Splat]] invades the mansion and captures Nylocke and Kirbopher, demanding that Asterob hand over the beta weapons in his possession, which have capabilities similar to his shield. Gamecrazed, who had been hiding elsewhere in the Mansion, then attacks Splat and throws her from the Mansion, before using his abilities to fix the hole in the Mansion's wall. As thanks, Asterob gives him the [[Drain Edge]]. He then pleads for the players to leave the Mansion, which they do.
Asterob briefly appears in [[Fraggedquest]], where he attempts to help [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] and Gamecrazed find the feet of the [[Shadow Guard Idol]].
Asterob next appears during [[Gemini Tournament Yin]] and [[Gemini Tournament Yang]], where he participates in the Gemini Tournament with [[Sniperwheel (TOME)|Sniperwheel]]. The duo face [[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]] and [[Dustbunny (TOME)|Dustbunny]] in the first round, during which Dustbunny fills the arena with smoke, allowing her to take Asterob's shield right from him. She and Neomutant then abandon the arena, allowing Asterob and Sniperwheel to win by forfeit and leaving Asterob without a weapon.
The quarterfinal round in the Gemini tournament, against two unnamed fighters, is won single-handedly by Sniperwheel, leaving Asterob very upset about the loss of his shield. It is just at that instant that the shield is thrown back into the arena by [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]], allowing him to participate in the upcoming semifinal round against Nylocke and Gamecrazed.
At the beginning of the round, Sniperwheel tells Asterob to "let a real man handle this one," which infuriates Asterob. He removes his hat, glasses, and tie, telling Nylocke that "there's only room for one Brit to be at the top!" However, he loses when the recoil from his shield's Drain Beam sends him off the edge of the tournament platform, defeating him instantly.
Asterob appears briefly during the credits sequence of Episode 9, standing atop a building in [[;Mechcity]] in his new outfit.
===Season 2===
Asterob again appears briefly at the beginning of [[The Infiltration Mission]], standing atop the Mansion and looking worriedly at the dark clouds filling the sky.
==Personality==
Asterob comes across as being slightly nervous and wary of other players. He is especially afraid of disappointing the Webmaster, who hired him to program and design certain parts of TOME, such as the Mansion. Despite his nervous tendencies, he's rather nice and friendly towards people he knows he can trust.
He is of English origin, and makes this very clear by using phrases such as "bloody hell" or "crums" when annoyed or distressed.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': When Kirbopher and Nylocke follow Gamecrazed in [[Mansion Midnight]] to learn more about him, they stumble upon the unfinished mansion. Asterob tells them to leave, and engages in combat with them when they refuse to leave. This fight is put to an end by Splat's assault on the mansion.
* '''[[Nylocke (TOME|Nylocke]]''': When Kirbopher and Nylocke follow Gamecrazed in E[[Mansion Midnight]] to learn more about him, they stumble upon the unfinished mansion. Asterob tells them to leave, and engages in combat with them when they refuse to leave. This fight is put to an end by Splat's assault on the mansion.
* '''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': After the mansion is attacked and damaged by Splat, Gamecrazed fights her off and fixes the damage done to the building. To thank him for this, Asterob gives Gamecrazed the [[Drain Edge]], a beta item not yet available to other players.
* '''[[Sniperwheel (TOME)|Sniperwheel]]''': In the Gemini Tournament, Asterob competes with Sniperwheel as his partner. It is unknown how or when the two became partners.
* '''[[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]]''': Asterob works for Webmaster and appears to be his chief graphic designer, as [[ChaseAce (TOME)|ChaseAce]] specifically asks for him in Episode 11 to clean up the mess left by [[Odboll (TOME)|Odboll]] in [[;Sanctuary]].
===Enemies===
==Abilities==
*'''Boomerang Shield''': A projectile attack in which the user throws their shield. It will return to them like a boomerang.
*'''Shove''': A charging attack that can push the opponent back great distances.
*'''Bomball''': Small bombs that can be thrown in succession.
*'''Drain Beam''': A powerful attack that is built up by energy absorbed from enemy attacks, then releases a beam that covers the entire length of the battlefield.
==Trivia==
*Asterob's name is a cross between the words "Asterisk" and "Rob." This is a reference to the original user's name from TvTome Adventures, which was "Rob*"(pronounced as Rob-Star) .
*Asterob's original design was modified to give him a hat and glasses. This was done to make him look more like his voice actor, Lawrence Simpson. Ironically, Asterob removes these items during the semifinal round of the Gemini tournament to show that he refuses to sit back and let someone else fight for him.

Bitshrum is Netking Number 2 of TOME. He is the game's area and background designer, responsible for creating ;Lavendera, ;Mechcity, and ;Sanctuary.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''Netking #2, head of environment design. The creation of TOME's three regions ([[;Lavendera]], [[;MechCity]] and [[;Sanctuary]]) were overseen by him. Bitshrum comes off as a bit of a show-off, but he's actually just a big goofball. His enthusiasm is always 100%, whether it's his excitement about the game he worked so hard on or a chance to finally face off with the players using his unique powers. He battles by summoning a variety of boxes that hold different properties, including ones that hold dangerous items inside!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Bitshrum-S2-487195119</ref>

*Bitshrum's design is based off of the original design of the Super Mushroom from the NES title, Super Mario Bros. His design is overall based off of Super Mario Bros, most noted with his stage, and the ability to create blocks that spawn fire-breathing mushrooms.
**These, in turn, reference the Fire Flower in the Mario series and the variants of the Pirhana Plant enemy that shoot fireballs.
**His design can also be seen as a nod to Split Mushroom, a boss in the Megaman X games. This can be seen with his orange and green color scheme.

Execk (President Execk in the RPG adaption) is the fifth of the five Netkings of TOME. He first appears in [[Year One]], where he acts as the first opponent of the Challenge of the Netkings quest. He is defeated by [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]].
==Appearance==
Execk is a tall, human-like android character wearing a formal suit and tie, clashing with his wild hair and eyes. His left hand can turn into several different weapons, meaning he might be left-handed.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''Netking #5, head of battle system development and programming. Execk biggest contribution to TOME was the creation of the "Battle Grid" that encases nearly the entire virtual world's landscape. His confidence in his ability to play his own game may come off as a bit abrasive, but he seems like a nice enough guy...but perhaps he's holding back some of his skill for the sake of being polite. He battles by shifting his arm into various machines like a sledgehammer, an air conditioner, a taser and even a flamethrower!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Execk-487195787</ref>
===Season 1===
In [[/FILE:ZERO]], Execk constructs the Battlegrid and teaches [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]] about human nature, saying that combat is necessary to satisfy the human desire for violence. However, in a game, no one gets hurt.
===Season 2===
In [[Secret of the Netkings]], Execk is revealed to be in charge of TOME's battle system. He invented the battlegrid.
==Personality==
==Relationships==
===Allies===
===Enemies===
==Abilities==
*'''Power Hammer''': His arm shifts into a powerful sledgehammer. It has demonstrated to be strong enough to easily smash apart a wooden desk.
*'''Ice Gun''': His arm shifts into an air conditioner to unleash a blast of cold air capable of freezing enemies solid.
*'''Lightning Gun''': His arm shifts into a taser to unleash a shocking bolt of electricity.
*'''Flamethrower''': His arm shifts into a flamethrower to unleash a massive stream of fire. The fire has been shown to be comparable to Alpha's Zeus Rage.
==Trivia==
*Execk is voiced by Jon St. John, who also voices the famous video game characters Duke Nukem and Big the Cat (up until 2004).
**In the TOME precursor series, TvTome Adventures, Execk was voiced by Chris Niosi's father.
*Ironically, even though Execk designed the game's combat system, he serves as the weakest of the five Netkings, outpaced by the character, sound, and graphic designers.
*In the original draft of season 2, the Netkings would have been fought in reverse order than they are in the final script. This makes more sense in terms of Execk's placing and Alpha's choice of opponent, but it doesn't show off Gamecrazed's skill or have as much build-up.
*Mike Pollock's portrayal of Execk in the RPG is in reminiscent of Donald Trump, who was the President of the United States while the game was in production.

Kindarspirit is Netking Number 3 of [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]]. She is the sound designer of the game, as well as the game's system voice. Although very serious and professional while in character, she is, in reality, incredibly bubbly and excitable. Her powers revolve around the use of the weather; she can spawn clouds of lightning and cause rainstorms and tornadoes.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''Netking #3, head of the sound department and very proudly the "true identity" of TOME's system voice that greets players upon logging in and gives them tutorials on how to play. Kindy is undoubtedly the most expressive and communicative of the Netkings, having a bit of an actor's spirit within her. When something cute and cuddly is in front of her though, forget formalities...you're in squee town. She battles by changing the weather into massive hail, tornado and lightning attacks by controlling the fight's background music!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kindarspirit-487195245</ref>
===Season 1===
In the year 2020, seven computer programmers (from the company known as [[Netking Software]]) were hired by [[Plan.Net]] to create the world's first full virtual-reality online experience, of which Kindarspirit was one. Kindarspirit was chosen to be the head of the game's sound department, and therefore became both the system voice and lead composer for the game. Kindarspirit was always interested in "cute" thing, and is implied to have been inspired by games such as Pokémon and Kirby while designing the game.
During the development of the game, the Netkings discovered that they had accidentally created a fully sentient virtual being, which was far beyond the scope of their original idea. Kindarspirit was thrilled when this happened, and decided to name the new artificial intelligence "[[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]]", which became an acronym for "Self-Operating Full-Duplex Technical Intelligence". Kindarspirit first taught SOFDTI how to speak, and although SOFDTI copied her voice at first, she eventually gained a voice of her own. Even early on, Kindarspirit frequently clashed with [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]], who had a very different idea of what SOFDTI should be used for. While Kindarspirit saw SOFDTI as a daughter that needed to be raised as a child, Rubirules saw SOFDTI as a key to a technological revolution. When Rubirules suggested to the other Netkings that the government be contacted, Kindarspirit became very angry, resulting in underlying tension between them that may have contributed to Rubirules' eventual founding of [[D-Buggers.org]].
Kindarspirit was present when SOFDTI spat out the negative emotions she had been absorbing from the Netkings (which were absorbed by True Shadowguard Beast). Kindarspirit defended SOFDTI after Zetto was injured by [[Kajet]], but also got him help when he cried out in pain. Kindarspirit, along with the other Netkings, attempted to seal the Shadowguard Beast away, but only SOFDTI's antivirus code (which was powered by love and the other positive emotions SOFDTI had absorbed) was able to lock it away in a beta region, where it was believed to be gone for good.
Kindarspirit was present when [[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]] consulted [[Giga (TOME)|Agent Giga]] about a possible negotiation that the Netkings could make with the government, to protect people while still keeping SOFDTI alive. It was eventually decided that SOFDTI could be permitted to survive under the guideline that she remained a government kept secret, and the game continued development as was intended. Kindarspirit continued to act as the game's system voice, and when new players logged in, she would politely greet them and invite them into [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]] - the game that had been named after SOFDTI, as it had become a collection of the thoughts, hopes, and dreams of every player logged into the system. At some point, Kindarspirit recorded a guide to the game known as the "[[Traveler's Guide]]", to explain the game's rules to new players and help establish a safer and more fun community within the game.
Kindarspirit was present in HOME after [[The Warring Demons|the incident with Demon Zetto]] and greeted Webmaster as the system voice as an in-joke before laughing and returning to her genuine, kid-like personality. However, Kindarspirit became solemn when she saw Zetto's disconnected character mode and noted that his eyes were grayed out.
===Season 2===
Kindarspirit would later participate in the "[[Secret of the Netkings|Challenge of the Netkings]]" anniversary event (at the suggestion of either [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]] or [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]]), and upon seeing Kirbopher's character model for the first time, she squeed and had a fangirl-y reaction to how adorable it looked. Kindarspirit then jokingly "kidnapped" Kirbopher, and [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] fought her as her Netking Challenge (defeating her by predicting what weather patterns she would use based on the background music that was playing). Kindarspirit then gave Kirbopher back and remarked on how the battle was fun, and that they should play again sometime.
Kindarspirit later formally introduced herself as the game's sound designer to all five players who had taken the Challenge but was interrupted when [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] angrily questioned the Netkings about the Forbidden Power's existence. When the virus itself broke free of the [[Drain Edge]], Webmaster logged the contest winners out of HOME, and the five Netkings prepared to attempt to copy SOFDTI's code and seal the Beast away again. Kindarspirit helped evacuate all players out of TOME during this time, and although she attempted to seal the beast away with the other Netkings, she failed. Kajet broke free, sending all of the Netkings flying in the [[;Sanctuary]] region, and allowing Rubirules's master plan to continue (as the [[Dragon Bug]] had been activated as well).
When Kajet and the Dragon Bug were both destroyed in the ensuing battle, Kindarspirit, Webmaster, [[Bitshrum (TOME)|Bitshrum]], and Execk showed up to assess the damage, only to find that Rubirules had revealed himself (and SOFDTI's existence) to Alpha. When Zetto and Kizuna angrily chastised Rubirules for putting both SOFDTI and Flamegirls' lives in danger, Kindarspirit became shocked and stayed with the other Netkings when Rubirules traveled to the game's core to finish his mission. After Alpha, Zetto, and Kizuna successfully defeated him, Rubirules reappeared to the other Netkings, telling them that they should listen to him, causing Kindarspirit to become enraged. Kindarspirit watched as Rubirules was taken into police custody, and was struck with joy when SOFDTI revealed that she was all right, in a large form resembling [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]. Kindarspirit's status after this is unknown, however, it is likely that she continued to make games with Netking Software and served as the game's system voice for as long as it remained active. It is also likely she continued to act as a motherly figure to SOFDTI.
==Personality==
Kindarspirit is very childlike and carefree, nearly always wearing a smile on her face. Although she has a tendency to act excitedly and is easily distracted by cute and nerdy things, she is actually very intelligent and is an excellent computer programmer and sound designer. Kindarspirit is capable of behaving professionally when it is necessary (such as when she is acting as the game's system voice), but her true personality is hyperactive and fun-loving. Despite this, Kindarspirit is also very motherly, and is extremely protective of SOFDTI, becoming uncharacteristically angered whenever she is threatened. She is kind and caring, but will take action when the situation calls for it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
===Enemies===
==Abilities==
She battles by changing the weather into massive hail, tornado, and lightning attacks by controlling the fight's background music!
==Trivia==
* Kindarspirit's name and character were inspired by the admin of a Kirby fan website named "Kirby's Rainbow Resort". Kindarspirit's childish nature and fondness for cute things (as well as her weather-related powers) are in reference to this.

Neomutant is a hacker first seen in Episode 7, hired by Tigerlilly to test the Antivirus's efficiency after it was implanted on its carrier. He is in the Fighter class and has the power of electricity. He was in reality first hired by Rubirules to encode the Antivirus well before Kizuna thought of hiring him, and it was he who proposed Flamegirl as the carrier because of his unsatisfied, lingering feelings for her, that would fuel the program and make it powerful enough, providing him with a revenge when she would suffer the effects of the Dragon Bug's creation.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''This character and the story that went with him was actually one of my favorites from TvTome Adventures, so when it came to finally doing [[Infectuation|Episode 07]] I wanted special attention to be paid to Alpha, Flamegirl and Neomutant. In particular, I wanted to help develop Flamegirl as a character and took Neomutant as an opportunity to flesh her out. I “upgraded” his stalker-ness to being a pursuer of Flamey’s in real life, as well as in the game.
''Although some of their history is a mystery for now, I wanted it to be very clear to the audience that it was a one-sided affection on Neo’s part. His charismatic tendencies are meant to be a cover-up for his own lack of self-esteem and to mask his otherwise selfish and chauvinistic intentions. Although Neomutant doesn’t come off as a good person, he was a LOT of fun to write, record and animate. Even in the original, I had wanted Neo to have a slight hint of a Spanish accent and was finally able to cast him appropriately. I had a certain actor in mind for Neo for YEARS, but due to unavailability was not able to get them. Thankfully, Chris Guerrero, who fit the bill perfectly, did me a HUGE favor and filled in as the voice. His performance really helped make the episode and the character memorable and I hope Neo becomes another fan-favorite of the series’ bad guys!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Neomutant-366478015</ref>
===Season 1===
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Although he is a hacker, he appears to embrace this condition solely to pursue Flamegirl and make sure Alpha doesn't hurt her, prolonging his one-sided affection. At one point, he comments, "To think this child was my competition," signifying his jealousy towards Alpha.
He was described by Chris Niosi to have a low self-esteem, as well as being highly charismatic, and paradoxically rather prone to flaunting his intellectual prowess. Flamegirl openly recognizes that he is mentally gifted, and an excellent programmer.
Neomutant is notable in that all of the apparent traits and motives he exhbits since his apparition only are a cover-up for the deep hatred he harbors for his former love, and are part of a general betrayal revenge plan. When having the opportunity to suggest a carrier for the Antivirus, he covertly proposed for it to be Flamegirl, tricking Rubirules into believing she would not be harmed, even though his implementation of the power source would risk causing her serious brain damage.
In watching the events unfold, he acted as though he still loved her and even held a sense of honor and justice in Episodes 13 and 14, simply in order to lure her into getting trapped inside TOME's moon. Neomutant is consequently extremely vicious and manipulative, which is only revealed in Episode 15, in addition to his psychopathic sadism. Chris Niosi has posited that he was most certainly arrested alongside Rubirules, for having done "even worse things" than him.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]]''': When Rubirules came to Flamegirl and Neomutant's high school to give a lecture on programming, he spotted Neomutant's programming skills and secretly hired him to encode the Antivirus. Later, when Stephanie refused to join him in his secret work, he elaborated a complex revenge plan and proposed her as a guinea pig to Rubirules, making sure to pretend she wouldn't be hurt, as he knew Rubirules wanted to feel righteous about his own motives.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': Neomutant has some history with Flamegirl, as he used to be in a computer coding class with her in high school. She respected his skill in coding, but he misinterpreted her kindness towards him as affection. He pretends to still harbor strong feelings for her, and fakes protecting her from Alpha when he loses control to the Forbidden Power - while, in reality, he does everything to elicit a response from the virus and push her in its way to trigger the purple flame. His sole goal is to avenge her refusal of his love by hurting her via the creation of the Dragon Bug. His life revolves around that objective to a maniacal degree.
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Neomutant first meets Alpha in Episode 7, and takes an instant disliking to him. He is quite visibly jealous of Alpha's relationship with Flamegirl. After temporarily paralyzing Alpha, the Forbidden Power takes control of Alpha's body and Neomutant attempts to fight him. In Episode 13, Alpha is forced to ally with him in order to infiltrate D-Buggers' base of operations, in a staged scenario created by Rubirules, Kizuna and Zetto to bring the Dragon Bug pieces together. This leaves their relationship strained in Episode 14 when the security alarm within the base is activated, but Neomutant, playing his part in this scenario, ultimately defends Alpha and helps him fight [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]] before being defeated. This doesn't change the fact that Neomutant very seemingly enjoys Alpha's distress upon him learning of his true goal. He comments about how "it's almost poetic how everything fell into place", since the human emotions of Flamegirl needed for the Dragon Bug were thanks to Alpha.
==Abilities==
*'''Zigzagzap''': A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Thunder Charge''': The user is struck by lightning that temporarily boosts their strength and can damage an opponent upon close impact.
*'''Drum Sparks''': Six electrical orbs appear around the user and are launched in succession at the opponent like a cannon.
==Trivia==
*Neomutant's season 1 design is similar to Deoxys from Pokémon. Both have red-orange as a primary color, have a similar body shape, are tall, and have similar colored items on their bodies. The TTA version of Neomutant looked even more like Deoxys, as far as having similar colors, shapes, designs, and object locations. This was because TTA's Neomutant was a sprite edit of Deoxys.
*Even though he has said to have given up on being together with Flamegirl, Neomutant does everything to make it seem like he still has strong feelings for her, going as far to protect her from Alpha when taken over by the Forbidden Power, and saying to his "employer" - who actually only is the pawn of his true boss - "I'll live, but I don't want [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Stephanie]] to get hurt again. This had better not get out of hand!"
*Neomutant is one of two secondary characters to have a unique theme song (Spanish Drive). The other is [[Serpentine (TOME)|Serpentine]].
*Neomutant has spiky fangs underneath his mask, representing how Neomutant is a cruel, manipulative person behind his caring facade.

He is an illusionist who can transform into a bird and disguise himself as any player he wishes. He is also very good at imitating the copied player's voice. Ravenfreak was given the anti-virus and instructed to attach it to [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]], which he did successfully.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''I find gender-ambiguous characters really intriguing. I say that, knowing full well that I intended Ravenfreak to be male, yet something was oddly fun about making him so effeminate and camp. Since his whole gimmick was disguising himself as others, I thought the stereotypical "actwaaah" approach this time around would really suit him...and boy did it.
''I had the fortunate pleasure of working with Lucien Dodge, one of the strongest actors I know, on not only Ravenfreak's voice, but a near-perfect match of Blake's voice for Alpha. I knew going into it that in order to even REMOTELY get people to buy that a doppelganger could work in a semi-realistic setting would be for the one masquerading to be a very, very convincing actor, so much so that you could mistake the real thing for them. I'd like to hope this came across well enough and people bought it. Either way, what people really dug was Ravenfreak's true personality beneath the disguise. I tried to go extra creepy with him, to a point of uncomfortability towards the audience, which I think is a really effective way to portray villains. Your audience can sympathize with bad guys, but when they're disturbed by them it's a totally different animal. Ravenfreak was definitely a highlight of working on the first three Episodes of TOME for me.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Ravenfreak-294301690</ref>

''This time around, I kept the same basic idea of these two characters' but gave them a serious upgrade in terms of comedy and flare, especially in thanks to the dynamic acting duo of Deven Mack Jr. and Eddie Bosco.
"Rockoon" was not written at first to be a little crazy black guy, but was asked by D-Mac (who for the record, IS African American) in order to help add some dimension to the little psycho...and BOY did it.

At the same time, his upbringing prevents him from dropping any major curse words and therefore resorts to stuff like "motherscratcher".

Doubling is considerably less enthusiastic about this task than Rockoon, who he finds to be quite irritating. After [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] scares off Doubling with the [[Forbidden Power]], he abandons Rockoon, only to return to him later under the guise of a new account, Skeight. Rockoon shows great irritation towards [[Skeight (TOME)|Skeight]], as he copies his traditional "Whubba?" catchphrase, going as far as to make Rockoon kick him out of the arena in the [[Gemini Tournament]]. In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Rockoon had enough of Skeight and he told him to get lost along with the fact he doesn't need anyone but himself. Finally giving up on him, Skeight said his catchphrase, "mother scratcher", as his goodbye, making Rockoon realizing that Skeight is actually Doubling as Rockoon regrets the things he said and did to him.

Rubirules is Netking Number 4 of TOME and is the hidden main antagonist of the series. He was in charge of the graphic design for all of TOME and created the character customization system. He is also the one whose approval is needed for each character created in the game, by his own statement in Episode 12. His only power is the ability to transform into any character in the game and use their respective powers.
It is revealed in the series finale, [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], that he created [[D-Buggers.org]] in order to seek out hackers to recover the [[Forbidden Power]]. Though he attempts and succeeds to fool others, most notably [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]], into believing that he acts for the greater good, he is tragically driven by ambition and eagerness for fame.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''Netking #4, head of character design. Rubirules created and manages the system that allows players to design anything they can imagine for their character model, with approval of course. Rubi fancies himself the court jester of the Netkings, as he loves to troll people, particularly with his not-so-great impressions of them. His power, on the other hand, allows him to perfectly imitate the look and abilities of any player that he reflects the image of off his shiny gem-like body.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Rubirules-487195657</ref>
===Pre-Season 1===
In the year 2020, seven computer programmers (from the company known as [[Netking Software]]) were hired by [[Plan.Net]] to create the first ever fully virtual-reality video game, of whom Rubirules was one. Although Rubirules served as the graphic and character designer for the game, he had an inflated sense of self-worth right from the get-go and was primarily interested in the possibility of going down in history as opposed to creating something special, although he kept this sentiment hidden from the other Netkings. Rubirules also had a fondness for retro fantasy games and RPGs, in addition to comic books and other visual mediums, which inspired him during the game's development.
During the development of the game, the [[Netkings]] discovered that they had accidentally created a fully sentient Artificial Intelligence, whom was affectionately dubbed "[[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]]". Rubirules was responsible for designing SOFDTI's character model (which was given a simple, human-like appearance to allow for better communication). Although Rubirules felt that the best way to utilize SOFDTI would be to contact the government and revolutionize the world's technology using her coding, his idea was quickly shot down by the other Netkings, who loved SOFDTI like a daughter and did not want to see her misused or taken away from them. Rubirules was irritated by this, believing that treating a computer program as a living thing was asinine, but kept quiet and allowed the game to resume development as was intended.
Rubirules' negative emotions, along with [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]]'s and (to a lesser extent) the other Netkings', eventually began to be absorbed by SOFDTI, growing into a virus within her. At some point, Rubirules designed a character named "The Shadowguard Beast", who was meant to be the game's first boss - however, it accidentally absorbed the virus SOFDTI was carrying within her, becoming a monstrosity named Kajet, which had the ability to hurt people in real life by turning data into negative human thought and tricking the brain's functions into experiencing pain. [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] was its first victim, prompting immediate panic from the developers. Although Rubirules and the other Netkings attempted to keep it contained, only SOFDTI was able to ultimately seal it away using an antivirus code directly translating positive emotions into code. The virus, incapable of such a transformation, and only able to act the other way around, stayed dormant until [[Alpha (TOME)|a victim]] came close enough for him to latch on.
Netking Software was forced to make a deal with the government as a result of this incident. Although SOFDTI was allowed to continue to survive, she was forced into a dormant state in which she could become the game's engine, and the Netkings were forced to keep her existence a secret to avoid risking harm to players. The game, which was eventually released on February 20th, 2020, was named in honor of SOFDTI- as she was able to process every emotion of every human being plugged into the game, she effectively had become a living [[TOME]]. Embittered by this decision, Rubirules secretly began developing his own antivirus code named the "[[Dragon Bug]]", hoping to use it to control the virus and, by extension, SOFDTI, whom he intended to use to gain fame and fortune for himself, though pretending to only care for the well-being of everyone around him.
At some point, Rubirules visited a high school in Burbank, California, where he met [[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]], and took him in as his protegé. Rubirules and Neomutant programmed the "head" of the Dragon Bug, keeping it a secret by hiding it inside a "Dragon Man" character model and presenting it as the prize for being the 1,111,111th registered player of TOME (a contest which was won by [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]). Rubirules also convinced [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]] to help him find the virus, claiming that it needed to be found and stopped before it could hurt anyone else. Kizuna and Zetto began hiring various contractors to carry out specific tasks within TOME, resulting in the formation of the hacker organization [[D-Buggers.org]], while Rubirules and Neomutant continued to work on their vaccination program. During this time, Rubirules continued to pretend to care about SOFDTI, and continued to act as Netking #4 and the game's character creation system manager. However, Rubirules slowly became more and more obsessed with his goal, becoming willing to hurt actual people in the pursuit of his ambition.
===Season 2===
As Zetto and Kizuna continued to work on the Dragon Bug and hired contractors to find the virus for him, Rubirules worked with Neomutant to create the "Purple Flame", the virus's power source. Drawing energy from Neomutant's unrequited "love" for Flamegirl, the Dragon Bug was able to emulate SOFDTI's code and could successfully function as an antivirus capable of damaging Kajet. However, Neomutant's emotions, while still technically positive, were founded on obsessive and selfish desires (as opposed to the Netkings' selfless parental love for SOFDTI), resulting in the Purple Flame becoming flawed and unstable. Neomutant convinced Rubirules to tell Zetto and Kizuna to give the Purple Flame to Flamegirl upon its completion, knowing full well it could put her in danger, but hiding it from Rubirules.
The Antivirus worked as a successful counter to the Virus after it resurfaced by latching itself onto [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]'s subconscious, this time, due to Alpha and Flamegirl's genuine feelings for each other. However, it remained secretly dangerous were it ever to be separated from Flamegirl, and had the potential to consume her if it was left unchecked. During this time, Rubirules mostly allowed Zetto and Kizuna to act on their own accord, hoping that they would find the virus and attempt to delete it with the Dragon Bug. However, he did occasionally manipulate events to better fit his ultimate agenda, such as when he sent [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]] to [[Dragon Drama|check if Nylocke still held the Dragon Bug's head within his character model]]. Rubirules also recreated the Shadowguard Beast at some point and used it in a [[Fraggedquest|sidequest involving the collection of fragments of an idol]], due to his pride as an artist. Rubirules refrained from telling Zetto and Kizuna about his ultimate agenda, and had them believe that they would delete the virus when they found it instead of using it in any way.
A [[Year One|year later]], either Rubirules or [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]] suggested to the other Netkings that a [[Secret of the Netkings|special battle sidequest]] be offered in celebration of TOME's anniversary - Rubirules had stated that it had been something they had wanted to do since the beginning of the game's development. After [[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]] and [[Bishipp (TOME)|Bishipp]] hosted a contest in celebration of such a major milestone for the game (a contest which Gamecrazed won), Rubirules assumed the shape of Zetto and appeared to the main protagonists, sending them all into a panic. [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], feeling that he needed to avenge Zetto's honor, took this joke personally, and subsequently fought and beat him. During this fight, Rubirules revealed to Nylocke that he was indeed the creator of his character model, although he did not tell him that he had secretly hid the Dragon Bug's head inside (opting instead to make a reference to ''Star Wars''). He took the occasion to claim that every character's model, and more especially Nylocke's, belonged to him as an artist, since his system had profoundly influenced their creation.
After the Challenge of the Netkings was completed, Rubirules appeared to the protagonists along with all of the other Netkings, revealing to them his position as lead character designer. When the Forbidden Power broke free of the [[Drain Edge]], Rubirules pretended not to know about it, although he did have a vague idea of what was happening due to his involvement with the hackers. After Webmaster forced the heroes out of TOME for their own safety, Rubirules and Kizuna sent Neomutant to lure Flamegirl and Nylocke to the Hacker Base within TOME's moon, hoping the Dragon Bug could be completed before Kajet inevitably broke free again. He then similarly feigned assistance in sealing Kajet away once more (by attempting to copy SOFDTI's containment code), but allowed it to break free so he could use the Dragon Bug to control it.
After both Kajet and the [[Dragon Bug]] were destroyed in the ensuing battle, Rubirules revealed himself to the other Netkings, telling them about his plan and asking if any of them wanted to take part. Zetto tried to reason with him that even though SOFDTI herself did not matter to him, Flamegirl's player was in serious danger from the eruption of the purple flame, which Rubi did not believe - as Neomutant has never revealed this to him.
When no one took him up on his offer, Rubirules travelled towards [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (Series Game)|TOME]]'s core on his own, knowing he would find [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]] there. Upon reaching the core, however, Rubirules was approached by [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]], who revealed himself to be SOFDTI's "shadow" - a character model created to help defeat the [[D-Buggers.org|malicious players]] hired to tear apart TOME and seek out the [[Forbidden Power]].
After defeating Gamecrazed with the Virus, however, [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]], [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]], and [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] appeared to try and stop him, infuriating Rubirules to the point where he declared to not care even if [[Flamegirl]] happened to be in actual danger, because changing the world mattered more. After Alpha merged with [[Kajet (TOME)|Kajet]] to attempt to stop him, Rubirules used the Antivirus data to shift his character model into an enormous monster, and later into a recolored version of Alpha, to defeat him. However, Rubirules's plan was stopped by Kajet's power overriding the Antivirus, resulting in Rubirules being logged out.
After the fight, Rubirules reappeared in the game to berate the other Netkings, as he felt that using SOFDTI to make a video game instead of revolutionizing the world was simply absurd. However, he was soon met by a government agent named [[Giga (TOME)|Giga]], who informed him that by revealing SOFDTI's existence to Alpha (in addition to playing a role in Flamegirl's near-death) he had violated the law, and that local authorities would arrive at his home shortly. Angered, Rubirules attempted to insult the other Netkings, but was interrupted by [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], who defeated him and logged him out of the game. He was likely arrested and his ultimate fate is unknown.
==Personality==
At first, Rubirules makes an impression of being a mere jokester always making puns and doing impersonations whenever he can, not taking things seriously. He acts oblivious to the existence of Kajet when it's brought up just like the rest of the Netkings. He is fun-loving and has a knack for retro games, cheesy pop culture references, and somewhat abrasive poking and teasing.
This is only the surface of his personality; deeper down, he's a cruel individual who is willing to use others for his own gain. Rubirules is obsessed with trying to use SOFDTI to start a technological revolution and had no remorse or second thoughts for his actions as he had caused all the main characters the drama and pain they all went through. When Flamegirl was discovered to not be responding once the [[Dragon Bug]] was destroyed, he showed no signs of caring and is willing to sacrifice real lives just to reach his goals.
However, Gamecrazed pointed out that Rubirules always manages to absolutely convince himself that he is right and that he acts out of altruist concern for the greater good. His drive for fame seem rather desperate, and he genuinely believes in a better future under SOFDTI's revolutionary drive, despite his callous character.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]''': Zetto had agreed with Rubirules in the past after he had suffered immense pain from Kajet and joined him in his quest to find SOFDTI. He persuaded Zetto to join D-Buggers and become the Co-Administrator of the organization, gaining his trust and using his trauma and insecurities against him. The two were rarely in direct contact and Zetto was let relatively free to battle and even create a separate account, as long as his mission was progressing. He considers both him and Kizuna "ignorant thumbsuckers", and especially thinks of the emotionally unstable Zetto as a "failure".
*'''[[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]]: Kizuna was convinced by Rubirules to join D-Buggers after the incident between Zetto and Kajet and she became the Administrator of D-Buggers. Kizuna obeyed Rubirules, proving diligent enough in undertaking the tasks that had to be dealt with for their common goal, so much so that he had little direct involvement, and more or less handed her all of his dirty work.
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Rubirules had been the real culprit behind the hackers coming in and ravaging TOME in search of the Forbidden Power. He only needed them for simple tasks and quickly dealt away with them once they completed his tasks. He was the source of their payment.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]: Rubirules met Neomutant when giving a lecture at his high school and hired him, as partly mentioned by Flamegirl. Neomutant was secretly brought on for developing assistance, and thus did so by choosing Flamegirl to be the carrier of the Anti-Virus. Though it was done out of personal revenge, Neomutant accepted it and he became an employee of D-Buggers. It is probable Rubirules took a liking to him for their common ease with manipulation. However, Neomutant ended up being the one to manipulate him, as to the very end, Rubirules had no idea that Flamegirl would be endangered by the Dragon Bug.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Rubirules got annoyed and frustrated with Alpha as he was the only one who constantly opposed him and tried to stop him from getting to SOFDTI. Because Rubi didn't care that Stephanie could've been dead, this only infuriated Alpha.
*'''[[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]''': Once Zetto found out what Rubi wanted to do with both the virus and the vaccination, he got furious as he saw his true intention on making millions and allowing Flamegirl to possibly die made Zetto fight against him after he was betrayed by him. Rubirules had delt with Zetto the moment he fought him and did it without second thoughts.
*'''[[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]]''': Once Kizuna found out what Rubirules was truly bent on doing, she got mad and did whatever it took to stop him from getting SOFDTI and allowing Flamey to essentially die just to make money. RUbi fought and beat her quickly and without remorse.
*'''[[Netkings]]''': Rubirules had always been at odds with the other Netkings over their views of SOFDTI since they used her for a video game which disgusted Rubirules who wanted to use her for greater means. As a result, he looked down on the other Netkings for viewing SOFDTI as a living being and betrayed them without second thoughts.
*'''[[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]]''': Rubirules saw SODFTI as an artificial intelligence and coding and looked at her as that while the other Netkings treated her as their child since they created sentient life. He had been obsessed with tracking her down and finding her and thus formed D-Buggers in order to do that. Rubirules wanted to use SOFDTI as a source of technological gain and profit for technological revolution and get rich.
Gamecrazed: Rubirules only met GC once but he was the first one to discover that GC was apart of SOFDTI. He fought Gamecrazed and eventually faced Alpha, Zetto, and Kizuna shortly after.
==Abilities==
===As Himself===
*'''Mirror Body''': Within a few seconds, Rubirules can encase himself in crystal and come back out as the character of his choosing. He gains a character's appearance and abilities, and there doesn't seem to be a clear restriction as to who he can't copy. His performance while copying a certain character is only limited by his own combat ability, which is systematically more limited than the character he imitates, as he can be anyone, but doesn't know any one character as well. Rubirules' main weakness is that he can be easily hit while he's transforming into someone else, as the crystals that surround him are not indestructible.
*'''Gem Prison''': Rubirules creates one or two floating, diamond-shaped barriers to seal and contain raw data. As this ability has only ever been used to contain data that was not a regular part of the game, it is unknown what this ability would do if it was used for its intended purpose. Rubirules used this ability to contain Kajet and the Dragon Bug's data after they canceled each other out. He can also use both the sealed virus and antivirus to his advantage. For example:
*'''Antivirus Flame''': Used in Episode 15, during the fight with Gamecrazed. Sends out a burst of flame to damage the opponent. Can be used in succession.
*'''Virus Wave''': Used in Episode 15, during the fight with Gamecrazed. Sends out a wave of energy to disrupt the opponent. Can be used in succession.
*'''Antivirus Fusion''': In the climactic fight at the end of Season 2, Rubirules jams the sealed antivirus into the core on his body, powering himself up greatly and giving him access to two new abilities.
===Post-Antivirus Fusion===
When combining the Antivirus crystal with his own character model, Rubirules can transform into a massive golem-like creature with immense strength. His weakness lies in the floating core in the middle of his body, where the sealed antivirus is located. In this form Rubirules has four floating appendages with different weapons that can be used to attack and overwhelm the user. The core can also fire off powerful blasts of pure antivirus energy, either as single, large shots or a huge beam. When he transforms back into his default form while in this state, his normal mirror-like abdomen is replaced with the Gem Prison containing the Antivirus.
*'''Mirror Body Plus''': An upgraded version of Ruby's unique Mirror Body technique. Ruby now transforms into a discolored copy of a player in TOME, rather than a perfect copy. He gains much stronger use of their abilities, and can charge his attacks with energy from the antivirus. He also demonstrates the ability to send out a miniature version of the Dragon Bug, capable of eating data. As Anti-Alpha, Rubirules gains access to all of Alpha's normal abilities, as well as all of the powers of the Antivirus. The Dragon Bug head he can utilize while in this form mirrors the Kajet Arm Alpha gains as Virus Fusion Alpha. Presumably, Rubirules could also imitate other character models while fused with the Antivirus to similarly create an imperfect copy, but this is never shown.
==Trivia==
*Rubirules' design and typeface seem to be inspired by that of old-fashioned comic books (which work their way into his job as a graphic designer).
*In addition, Rubirules' color scheme (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Dark Purple) is nearly identical to the CYMK color set used in printer ink (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black) which is a further reference to his motif of Graphic Arts.
*During Rubirules' fight with [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], he transforms into Nylocke and makes a dialogue reference to the infamous scene in Star Wars: Episode 5, when Darth Vader reveals his identity to Luke.
:'''Rubirules''': It means you could say, Nylocke, that, in a way...I am your father!
:'''Nylocke''': No! That's impossible!
:'''Rubirules''': Doest ye olde internet search! You know it to be true!
:'''Nylocke''': Never!
*Despite his ability to use any character model in the game, Rubirules used [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]'s season 1 model in his fight against Nylocke instead of Zetto's season 2 model. This was likely because he was the person pulling the strings behind Zetto and Kizuna's operation and did not want to jeopardize it by implying Zetto was still active.
*Rubirules's design was originally going to resemble the appearance of his Statue in the ;Sanctuary region, and feature arms made up of several segmented jewels.
*As a result of this, Rubirules's final form was also going to be different, with his arms becoming two Dragon Bug heads and his body being surrounded by the Broken pieces of the jewels on his body. This form was going to be named "Graphix" (which was also an idea for Rubirules's name in general), however, the idea was scrapped along with his original design, and replaced with the beast that fights Virus Fusion Alpha in Episode 15.

Rubirules is Netking Number 4 of TOME and is the hidden main antagonist of the series. He was in charge of the graphic design for all of TOME and created the character customization system. He is also the one whose approval is needed for each character created in the game, by his own statement in Episode 12. His only power is the ability to transform into any character in the game and use their respective powers.
It is revealed in the series finale, [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], that he created [[D-Buggers.org]] in order to seek out hackers to recover the [[Forbidden Power]]. Though he attempts and succeeds to fool others, most notably [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]], into believing that he acts for the greater good, he is tragically driven by ambition and eagerness for fame.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''Netking #4, head of character design. Rubirules created and manages the system that allows players to design anything they can imagine for their character model, with approval of course. Rubi fancies himself the court jester of the Netkings, as he loves to troll people, particularly with his not-so-great impressions of them. His power, on the other hand, allows him to perfectly imitate the look and abilities of any player that he reflects the image of off his shiny gem-like body.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Rubirules-487195657</ref>
===Pre-Season 1===
In the year 2020, seven computer programmers (from the company known as [[Netking Software]]) were hired by [[Plan.Net]] to create the first ever fully virtual-reality video game, of whom Rubirules was one. Although Rubirules served as the graphic and character designer for the game, he had an inflated sense of self-worth right from the get-go and was primarily interested in the possibility of going down in history as opposed to creating something special, although he kept this sentiment hidden from the other Netkings. Rubirules also had a fondness for retro fantasy games and RPGs, in addition to comic books and other visual mediums, which inspired him during the game's development.
During the development of the game, the [[Netkings]] discovered that they had accidentally created a fully sentient Artificial Intelligence, whom was affectionately dubbed "[[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]]". Rubirules was responsible for designing SOFDTI's character model (which was given a simple, human-like appearance to allow for better communication). Although Rubirules felt that the best way to utilize SOFDTI would be to contact the government and revolutionize the world's technology using her coding, his idea was quickly shot down by the other Netkings, who loved SOFDTI like a daughter and did not want to see her misused or taken away from them. Rubirules was irritated by this, believing that treating a computer program as a living thing was asinine, but kept quiet and allowed the game to resume development as was intended.
Rubirules' negative emotions, along with [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]]'s and (to a lesser extent) the other Netkings', eventually began to be absorbed by SOFDTI, growing into a virus within her. At some point, Rubirules designed a character named "The Shadowguard Beast", who was meant to be the game's first boss - however, it accidentally absorbed the virus SOFDTI was carrying within her, becoming a monstrosity named Kajet, which had the ability to hurt people in real life by turning data into negative human thought and tricking the brain's functions into experiencing pain. [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] was its first victim, prompting immediate panic from the developers. Although Rubirules and the other Netkings attempted to keep it contained, only SOFDTI was able to ultimately seal it away using an antivirus code directly translating positive emotions into code. The virus, incapable of such a transformation, and only able to act the other way around, stayed dormant until [[Alpha (TOME)|a victim]] came close enough for him to latch on.
Netking Software was forced to make a deal with the government as a result of this incident. Although SOFDTI was allowed to continue to survive, she was forced into a dormant state in which she could become the game's engine, and the Netkings were forced to keep her existence a secret to avoid risking harm to players. The game, which was eventually released on February 20th, 2020, was named in honor of SOFDTI- as she was able to process every emotion of every human being plugged into the game, she effectively had become a living [[TOME]]. Embittered by this decision, Rubirules secretly began developing his own antivirus code named the "[[Dragon Bug]]", hoping to use it to control the virus and, by extension, SOFDTI, whom he intended to use to gain fame and fortune for himself, though pretending to only care for the well-being of everyone around him.
At some point, Rubirules visited a high school in Burbank, California, where he met [[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]], and took him in as his protegé. Rubirules and Neomutant programmed the "head" of the Dragon Bug, keeping it a secret by hiding it inside a "Dragon Man" character model and presenting it as the prize for being the 1,111,111th registered player of TOME (a contest which was won by [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]). Rubirules also convinced [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]] to help him find the virus, claiming that it needed to be found and stopped before it could hurt anyone else. Kizuna and Zetto began hiring various contractors to carry out specific tasks within TOME, resulting in the formation of the hacker organization [[D-Buggers.org]], while Rubirules and Neomutant continued to work on their vaccination program. During this time, Rubirules continued to pretend to care about SOFDTI, and continued to act as Netking #4 and the game's character creation system manager. However, Rubirules slowly became more and more obsessed with his goal, becoming willing to hurt actual people in the pursuit of his ambition.
===Season 2===
As Zetto and Kizuna continued to work on the Dragon Bug and hired contractors to find the virus for him, Rubirules worked with Neomutant to create the "Purple Flame", the virus's power source. Drawing energy from Neomutant's unrequited "love" for Flamegirl, the Dragon Bug was able to emulate SOFDTI's code and could successfully function as an antivirus capable of damaging Kajet. However, Neomutant's emotions, while still technically positive, were founded on obsessive and selfish desires (as opposed to the Netkings' selfless parental love for SOFDTI), resulting in the Purple Flame becoming flawed and unstable. Neomutant convinced Rubirules to tell Zetto and Kizuna to give the Purple Flame to Flamegirl upon its completion, knowing full well it could put her in danger, but hiding it from Rubirules.
The Antivirus worked as a successful counter to the Virus after it resurfaced by latching itself onto [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]'s subconscious, this time, due to Alpha and Flamegirl's genuine feelings for each other. However, it remained secretly dangerous were it ever to be separated from Flamegirl, and had the potential to consume her if it was left unchecked. During this time, Rubirules mostly allowed Zetto and Kizuna to act on their own accord, hoping that they would find the virus and attempt to delete it with the Dragon Bug. However, he did occasionally manipulate events to better fit his ultimate agenda, such as when he sent [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]] to [[Dragon Drama|check if Nylocke still held the Dragon Bug's head within his character model]]. Rubirules also recreated the Shadowguard Beast at some point and used it in a [[Fraggedquest|sidequest involving the collection of fragments of an idol]], due to his pride as an artist. Rubirules refrained from telling Zetto and Kizuna about his ultimate agenda, and had them believe that they would delete the virus when they found it instead of using it in any way.
A [[Year One|year later]], either Rubirules or [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]] suggested to the other Netkings that a [[Secret of the Netkings|special battle sidequest]] be offered in celebration of TOME's anniversary - Rubirules had stated that it had been something they had wanted to do since the beginning of the game's development. After [[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]] and [[Bishipp (TOME)|Bishipp]] hosted a contest in celebration of such a major milestone for the game (a contest which Gamecrazed won), Rubirules assumed the shape of Zetto and appeared to the main protagonists, sending them all into a panic. [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], feeling that he needed to avenge Zetto's honor, took this joke personally, and subsequently fought and beat him. During this fight, Rubirules revealed to Nylocke that he was indeed the creator of his character model, although he did not tell him that he had secretly hid the Dragon Bug's head inside (opting instead to make a reference to ''Star Wars''). He took the occasion to claim that every character's model, and more especially Nylocke's, belonged to him as an artist, since his system had profoundly influenced their creation.
After the Challenge of the Netkings was completed, Rubirules appeared to the protagonists along with all of the other Netkings, revealing to them his position as lead character designer. When the Forbidden Power broke free of the [[Drain Edge]], Rubirules pretended not to know about it, although he did have a vague idea of what was happening due to his involvement with the hackers. After Webmaster forced the heroes out of TOME for their own safety, Rubirules and Kizuna sent Neomutant to lure Flamegirl and Nylocke to the Hacker Base within TOME's moon, hoping the Dragon Bug could be completed before Kajet inevitably broke free again. He then similarly feigned assistance in sealing Kajet away once more (by attempting to copy SOFDTI's containment code), but allowed it to break free so he could use the Dragon Bug to control it.
After both Kajet and the [[Dragon Bug]] were destroyed in the ensuing battle, Rubirules revealed himself to the other Netkings, telling them about his plan and asking if any of them wanted to take part. Zetto tried to reason with him that even though SOFDTI herself did not matter to him, Flamegirl's player was in serious danger from the eruption of the purple flame, which Rubi did not believe - as Neomutant has never revealed this to him.
When no one took him up on his offer, Rubirules travelled towards [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (Series Game)|TOME]]'s core on his own, knowing he would find [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]] there. Upon reaching the core, however, Rubirules was approached by [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]], who revealed himself to be SOFDTI's "shadow" - a character model created to help defeat the [[D-Buggers.org|malicious players]] hired to tear apart TOME and seek out the [[Forbidden Power]].
After defeating Gamecrazed with the Virus, however, [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]], [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]], and [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] appeared to try and stop him, infuriating Rubirules to the point where he declared to not care even if [[Flamegirl]] happened to be in actual danger, because changing the world mattered more. After Alpha merged with [[Kajet (TOME)|Kajet]] to attempt to stop him, Rubirules used the Antivirus data to shift his character model into an enormous monster, and later into a recolored version of Alpha, to defeat him. However, Rubirules's plan was stopped by Kajet's power overriding the Antivirus, resulting in Rubirules being logged out.
After the fight, Rubirules reappeared in the game to berate the other Netkings, as he felt that using SOFDTI to make a video game instead of revolutionizing the world was simply absurd. However, he was soon met by a government agent named [[Giga (TOME)|Giga]], who informed him that by revealing SOFDTI's existence to Alpha (in addition to playing a role in Flamegirl's near-death) he had violated the law, and that local authorities would arrive at his home shortly. Angered, Rubirules attempted to insult the other Netkings, but was interrupted by [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], who defeated him and logged him out of the game. He was likely arrested and his ultimate fate is unknown.
==Personality==
At first, Rubirules makes an impression of being a mere jokester always making puns and doing impersonations whenever he can, not taking things seriously. He acts oblivious to the existence of Kajet when it's brought up just like the rest of the Netkings. He is fun-loving and has a knack for retro games, cheesy pop culture references, and somewhat abrasive poking and teasing.
This is only the surface of his personality; deeper down, he's a cruel individual who is willing to use others for his own gain. Rubirules is obsessed with trying to use SOFDTI to start a technological revolution and had no remorse or second thoughts for his actions as he had caused all the main characters the drama and pain they all went through. When Flamegirl was discovered to not be responding once the [[Dragon Bug]] was destroyed, he showed no signs of caring and is willing to sacrifice real lives just to reach his goals.
However, Gamecrazed pointed out that Rubirules always manages to absolutely convince himself that he is right and that he acts out of altruist concern for the greater good. His drive for fame seem rather desperate, and he genuinely believes in a better future under SOFDTI's revolutionary drive, despite his callous character.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]''': Zetto had agreed with Rubirules in the past after he had suffered immense pain from Kajet and joined him in his quest to find SOFDTI. He persuaded Zetto to join D-Buggers and become the Co-Administrator of the organization, gaining his trust and using his trauma and insecurities against him. The two were rarely in direct contact and Zetto was let relatively free to battle and even create a separate account, as long as his mission was progressing. He considers both him and Kizuna "ignorant thumbsuckers", and especially thinks of the emotionally unstable Zetto as a "failure".
*'''[[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]]''': Kizuna was convinced by Rubirules to join D-Buggers after the incident between Zetto and Kajet and she became the Administrator of D-Buggers. Kizuna obeyed Rubirules, proving diligent enough in undertaking the tasks that had to be dealt with for their common goal, so much so that he had little direct involvement, and more or less handed her all of his dirty work.
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Rubirules had been the real culprit behind the hackers coming in and ravaging TOME in search of the Forbidden Power. He only needed them for simple tasks and quickly dealt away with them once they completed his tasks. He was the source of their payment.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': Rubirules met Neomutant when giving a lecture at his high school and hired him, as partly mentioned by Flamegirl. Neomutant was secretly brought on for developing assistance, and thus did so by choosing Flamegirl to be the carrier of the Anti-Virus. Though it was done out of personal revenge, Neomutant accepted it and he became an employee of D-Buggers. It is probable Rubirules took a liking to him for their common ease with manipulation.

Webmaster is Netking Number 1, the creator and administrator of [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]] and the head of [[Netkings|Netking Software]]. A kind and appreciative character, he usually resides in HOME and watches the game from above. Webmaster is always very proud to see the players of TOME use their creativity to create unique characters, and is equally proud of the amount of support the game has been given.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''Webmaster was always meant to be a relatively down-to-Earth guy, well-mannered and calm, but also very passionate. He and his team of programmers from [[Netking Software]] worked incredibly hard on making TOME a game that all people from around the world can enjoy. His goal is all about letting creativity run wild for everyone in a way that's fair but satisfying for all, so that players who creatively clever in tandem with developing their skill are rewarded for their careful thoughts.
''In this version of the story, I wanted to better illustrate Webmaster to be a figure of great respect to all who play TOME. In TTA we were very quickly introduced to him without ever getting a great sense of who he was. This time around, I made sure he was mentioned early on, in an almost foreboding way, and then finally revealed in a very positive light, yet still with an air of mystery. His interview with Anneva in particular was meant to be a very rare sort of delve into the creator's mind; something that the players of TOME hadn't gotten the chance to often hear about until long after the game was released to the public.
''Also, interesting fact, Webmaster was originally intended to be the "System Voice" that opens up the very first episode, as well as the one who says "BATTLE...ON!". There was even a small audition held, before I went in a different direction and ultimately had Kyle Hebert take on the character for the two Gemini Tournament episodes.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Webmaster-422606678</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''Lead programmer and director of the TOME production team, the "Netkings". Webmaster is heralded by the players as a figure of tremendous respect. While the other Netkings are generally more reclusive, Webmaster occasionally makes public appearances at special events both in and out of gamespace. Socially, he knows what he's doing in a crowd...but even he has a breaking point. In rare cases being faced with combat in the game, Webmaster deploys powerful attacks derived from the same light that logs the players in and out of TOME.
===Season 1===
Chronologically, Webmaster first appears in [[/FILE:ZERO]] alongside his fellow [[Netkings]] during the development of TOME. He was directly responsible for the creation of [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]], though had little influence on teaching and developing her like the other Netkings did. It was his decision after the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] was created to seal her away in the game's code rather than destroy her.
Webmaster is first mentioned in [[Mansion Midnight]], when [[Asterob (TOME)|Asterob]] mentions that his mansion project was commissioned by Webmaster himself. A stylized portrait of Webmaster can be seen hanging on the back wall of the Mansion before [[Splat (TOME)|Splat]] covers the wall with her slime.
Webmaster's first true appearance is at the beginning of [[Gemini Tournament Yin]], introducing the Gemini Tournament and expressing pride at the teams of players who have fought hard to reach the finals. He then appears in-person at the tournament after [[Dustbunny (TOME)|Dustbunny]] fills the arena with her smoke to lure [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] away, using his Heavenly Light abilities to dissipate the smoke instantly. [[Anneva (TOME)|Anneva]] takes the opportunity to interview Webmaster in the announcers' booth. Webmaster takes special care to not show any preference toward any team in the tournament, instead saying that the team with the best synergy between them will win.
Webmaster remains in the announcers' booth for [[Gemini Tournament Yang]], declining to comment on the final match between [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]], [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]], [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], and [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]. He appears briefly during the awards ceremony, apparently having personally awarded the trophies to Kizuna and Zetto.
Webmaster appears again at the end of [[The Warring Demons]], carrying Zetto's malfunctioning model up to HOME after Zetto's battle with Demon Alpha. He comments on the grayed-out nature of the model's eyes and wonders why he unhooked himself from the game.
===Season 2===
Near the beginning of [[Year One]], Webmaster appears in [[;Sanctuary]] to commemorate the one-year anniversary of TOME, giving a heartfelt speech about how proud he is of all the different and varied characters that the game has allowed the players to produce. He then announces a special "boss rush" quest for one random winner at the gathering: that player may gather up to four other players to take on the Challenge of the Netkings, fighting their way up the ladder of Netkings to see if they can defeat the creators of the game. If they do, the Netkings will reward them with one wish of the players' choice, within reason.
Gamecrazed and his friends inevitably reach the final battle with Webmaster towards the end of [[Secret of the Netkings]]. Gamecrazed is chosen to fight with Webmaster, and after a furious struggle, Gamecrazed emerges victorious. The other Netkings appear and officially introduce themselves to the players. During this time, Webmaster reveals to them that Zetto and Kizuna were unofficial Netkings tasked with testing the game. Before the subject of the reward can be brought up, [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], set off by the mention of Zetto, demands to know who put the Forbidden Power in the game. The Netkings are confused by the question, but before any explanation can be put forward, [[ChaseAce (TOME)|ChaseAce]] messages Webmaster about the mysterious object that is floating towards HOME. Webmaster hurriedly apologizes to Alpha and his team and informs them that he has to log them out for their own safety, which he does.

*'''Heaven's Pillar''': The user targets a grounded area and then brings down a powerful beam of light. This is the very same light that logs players in and out of TOME, so he is capable of using it to "force log out" players. He has also shown to be able to use it for teleportation.
*'''Asteroid Rain''': The user summons a series of asteroids that rain down and crushes any opponents within their blast radius.
*'''God Hand''': The user's hands become disconnected and transform into giant palms for wider-range physical attacks. The hands are capable of unleashing a variety of elemental attacks, like wind, electricity, ice, and fire.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit (TOME)|Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]], and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the [[Netking Software|Netkings]] or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In [[Monstrosities]], Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''"The current incarnation of Alpha is something I'm very happy with. When developing the personalities of the main five characters, Alpha and [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] I had the most difficulty with. My original idea was keeping him fairly the same, but I felt it would've been far too boring to go that route. When I eventually decided to cast Blake Swift as his new actor (replacing Mike Luckas, who voiced "himself" in the original), the rest fell into place.
''Alpha is now actually the youngest of the group, maybe only a year younger than Flamey at the most, but this age difference lets him come off as more spiritedly and naive. He's very sweet and maybe a tad awkward. His relationship with Flamegirl in this one shifted a bit, in which case he's very comfortable around her and can speak his mind when feeling vunerable or out-of-place. He also has a bit more of a bro-rivalry with [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirb]] this time, which makes for some funny moments.
''As seen in the first episode, after being infected with "[[Kajet]]", Alpha's state of mind changes and his confidence comes to the surface. I don't imagine it so much as a split-personality sort of deal, but more like his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions, which ends up being a lifesaver to his friends. In terms of design, I brought down his shirt a bit to show less belly, fixed his hair a bit to have the spike over one eye, as well as his long sleeves and scarf, to project that sort of introverted feel to him. I also gave him a feather-tail to match his angel wings (as opposed to the strange lizard-tail).
''As with the original, Alpha will be going through some major changes in TOME, so look forward to seeing him grow alongside his new-found friends!"''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref>
=====Demon Form=====
''Using the basic idea of the original concept, I expanded upon it and tried to put some logic to it, as well concocting an interesting "science" behind the idea. Imagine if you will, "fusion" characters; those combined from two people...how would their mind work? Would it be like two consciousnesses controlling a single body, or would it be one NEW consciousness all its own?
''The virus the players know as "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]" is an artificial intelligence that we see "speaks" to Alpha throughout the series; whispering ideas of committing horrible acts into the boy's ear. Alpha, although a great player, starts out as being weak-willed and easily-manipulated. When combining an artificial intelligence that cares about nothing but violence with a human mind that is weak enough to be preyed upon, what do you get? The answer is, a savage.
''The "Demon forms" seen in the show are a result of that; mindless, blood-lusting killers, which when FURTHER combined with the virus' mysterious ability of harming other players through the game in real life, makes for a dangerous combination. Additionally, since the virus has been growing stronger being "hosted" in the mind of a human being and feeding off that further negativity, the subsequent appearances of these Demons gets more and more horrifying! Tons of fun to animate for me...but NOT tons of fun for Blake and I to scream our lungs out on!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Demon-Alpha-422842626</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''A previously was shy and introverted teen, now a confident and skilled player. "Michael" discovered a strange entity during his early days in TOME that players called "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]" and was put through a harsh and danger-filled experience after being infected by it. With the power now lost in the depths of TOME, Alpha has sought to move on, but still strives to protect his friends, whom he clings to dearly. He battles with elemental powers inspired by his favorite Greek and Roman Gods.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-S2-478706655</ref>
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]], under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in [[;Mechcity]], which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During [[Infectuation]], a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword ([[Drain Edge]] equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Kajet|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[The Warring Demons]] to [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Kajet|Demon]] [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in [[Alpha v.s Zetto|AvZ]].
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's childhood friend, Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (RPG)|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Flamegirl''', sometimes called "Flamey" (born Stephanie Basco), is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in TOME, a [[Spellcaster]] with the power of fire. Unbeknownst to her, the antivirus program - or "Purple Flame" - to cure the Forbidden Power had been attached to her character model in [[Highest Form of Flattery]], which was the power source of the Dragon Bug. This made her the only person able to stop the Power's influence on [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], and later put her in risk of brain death when the Purple Flame was used by [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]] to try and control SOFDTI.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''I knew her design would be staying relatively the same, but even that was tough. I fine-tuned her outfit a little, shortened her wings and gave her a matching tail...and the hair. Ohhh the hair. Even the cut that I eventually settled on proved to be difficult to manage, since drawing her little fire-loopy things that hang down turned out to be a major pain in the ass; maybe they won't be for long.
''Once I had her design in place, next came her personality. Flamey was the only of the main five characters I actually held private voiceover auditions for. Ultimately, at the advice of many people I trusted, I went with newcomer Anna Kingsley, who I think has been doing quite well so far and has been growing as an actress over the course of the series along with her character. I wanted to go with a fairly unique sound and Anna's voice, being relatively new to the scene, was a good fit.
''In terms of writing her dialogue, to this day I'm still a little shaky on what works for her or not. Going into the series, I knew I wanted to exaggerate Alpha's shyness, Kirbopher's anger and Nylocke's over-the-topness, while taking Gamecrazed's original snark and dryness and dividing it up amongst Kirb and Flamegirl. I consider Flamey to be the most "normal" of the main five; the most like a typical teenager/young woman (I peg her at about 18-19 or so) and therefore, the unofficial "leader" of the gang. Nylocke acts as such, especially when leading them against the hacker threat, but because he's so caught up in his character, Flamey is the intellect behind his muscle.
''In terms of her "budding romance" with Alpha, I'm also trying to handle that very carefully and as naturally as possible. I'm hoping that the general female viewership are comfortable with her a lead heroine and that they look forward to seeing where the story takes her as much as the other heroes.''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Flamegirl-290810700</ref>
=====Season 2=====
//The headstrong unofficial leader of our heroes. "Stephanie" is normally a very level-headed and straightforward kind of girl, sweet and caring towards her friends...but the mention of hackers sets her temper ablaze. Her experiences with the various malicious TOME players who previously sought The Forbidden Power has swept her into a vendetta against them. Any threat to her team, and the game that brought them together, she won't stand for. She battles with an array of searing fire attacks.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Flamegirl-S2-478706820</ref>
===Season 1===
Flamegirl first appears in [[You Gotta Virus]] where she is talking to Gamecrazed and awaits the arrival of the rest of her friends. Alpha and [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] finally arrive and they all begin to discuss plans on how they'll deal with the hackers who keep ravaging TOME.
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.
She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the [[Forbidden Power]] took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Her apparent love interest, the two are quite close. She is impressed by the sheer power and confidence Alpha exerts while using the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': The two seem to be close friends, but due to both being close to Alpha, they also appear to have a rivalry for his friendship, they often get into fights and arguments and seem to disagree a lot about things.
*'''[[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]''': Flamegirl knows more about Nylocke's true personality than any of the others, due to the fact that she was online when he logged on drunk one day.
*'''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': The two have not interacted very much.
*'''[[Saturndiva (TOME)|Saturndiva]]''' & '''[[Whyti (TOME)|Whyti]]''': They are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of [[;Mechcity]].
===Enemies===
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Like the rest of her group, she often fights hackers together with her friends.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': Though Flamegirl has dismissed him several times, and regards him as a stalker with clear distain, Neomutant still pursues her affection, going as far as to join TOME as a hacker to protect her from Alpha.
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': Flamegirl, along with Alpha, approached her age-old Hacker enemy towards the end of [[You've Gotta Virus]]. This was when she first saw the Forbidden Power within Alpha.
==Abilities==
*'''Flame Bullet''': A rapid projectile attack that allows the user to shoot small blasts of fire from their fingers.
*'''Rocket Burn''': A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. This move can also be turned into a spinning attack.
*'''Angry Burst''': A short-range but forceful attack made of concentrated flames.
*'''Sun Bomb''': A chargable projectile attack that moves slowly but causes a greater explosion upon impact.
*'''The Anti-Virus''': A purple flame that acts as a vaccine against the Forbidden Power, which she unknowningly obtained from [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] in [[Highest Form of Flattery]].
==Trivia==
* Flamegirl's ID number is 008-974-659.

"Stephanie" is normally a very level-headed and straightforward kind of girl, sweet and caring towards her friends...but the mention of hackers sets her temper ablaze. Her experiences with the various malicious TOME players who previously sought The Forbidden Power has swept her into a vendetta against them. Any threat to her team, and the game that brought them together, she won't stand for. She battles with an array of searing fire attacks.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Flamegirl-S2-478706820</ref>
===Season 1===
Flamegirl first appears in [[You Gotta Virus]] where she is talking to Gamecrazed and awaits the arrival of the rest of her friends. Alpha and [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] finally arrive and they all begin to discuss plans on how they'll deal with the hackers who keep ravaging TOME.
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.
She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the [[Forbidden Power]] took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Her apparent love interest, the two are quite close. She is impressed by the sheer power and confidence Alpha exerts while using the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': The two seem to be close friends, but due to both being close to Alpha, they also appear to have a rivalry for his friendship, they often get into fights and arguments and seem to disagree a lot about things.
*'''[[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]''': Flamegirl knows more about Nylocke's true personality than any of the others, due to the fact that she was online when he logged on drunk one day.
*'''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': The two have not interacted very much.
*'''[[Saturndiva (TOME)|Saturndiva]]''' & '''[[Whyti (TOME)|Whyti]]''': They are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of [[;Mechcity]].
===Enemies===
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Like the rest of her group, she often fights hackers together with her friends.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': Though Flamegirl has dismissed him several times, and regards him as a stalker with clear distain, Neomutant still pursues her affection, going as far as to join TOME as a hacker to protect her from Alpha.
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': Flamegirl, along with Alpha, approached her age-old Hacker enemy towards the end of [[You've Gotta Virus]]. This was when she first saw the Forbidden Power within Alpha.
==Abilities==
*'''Flame Bullet''': A rapid projectile attack that allows the user to shoot small blasts of fire from their fingers.
*'''Rocket Burn''': A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. This move can also be turned into a spinning attack.
*'''Angry Burst''': A short-range but forceful attack made of concentrated flames.
*'''Sun Bomb''': A chargable projectile attack that moves slowly but causes a greater explosion upon impact.
*'''The Anti-Virus''': A purple flame that acts as a vaccine against the Forbidden Power, which she unknowningly obtained from [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] in [[Highest Form of Flattery]].
==Trivia==
* Flamegirl's ID number is 008-974-659.

'''Gamecrazed''', often referred to as "GC," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]]. He is [[Morphological]] class with the power of shadow. He is a very quiet character, avoiding conversation whenever possible. He is closest to Nylocke out of all the other main characters. It was revealed in the season 2 finale that GC was the "shadow" of [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]], the artificial intelligence that TOME ran on. His screen name was actually the password to the door which protects the room in which SOFDTI sleeps deep within [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]].
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Gamecrazed generally appears as a very quiet, collected, and polite individual. A few times, characters have also described him as nice. He tends to stick with himself and often replies with a simple "hm" when spoken to in a conversation.
Whenever meeting in public is brought up between the gang, he usually tries to change the topic and usually appears uncomfortable with it. Since GC is revealed to be the "shadow" of SOFDTI in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], he knows he can't meet them in real life and thus won't talk about meeting them in real life.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''With [[Gamecrazed (TTA)|that]] in mind, changing GC in the way I did for TOME was actually a lot of pressure. In very early stages I envisioned him being the same as he was before (complete with [[Gamecrasher (TTA)|Gamecrasher]], who never got a redesign for the new series), but as I continued developing the dynamic of the main characters, I decided it would be better to make a few changes to GC.
''His design remained intact, with my only addition being the little control pad in place of a belly-button. I stripped GC of his sarcasm and attitude and gave it to Kirb, mainly because Kirb and Alpha's personalities were running a bit too close to each other. I amped up Alpha's shyness, gave Kirb an [sic] attitude and then focused on how Gamecrazed should be. I went with the "strong silent type" for GC as it proved to be better for the group dynamic.
''I had run into problems with TTA in that many of the main characters' personalities were way too similar. Granted, this can be the case with groups of friends that all think like-minded, but it's not interesting from a writing or entertainment perspective. My thought process for when GC talks in TOME is only when he is asked to respond (to show that he's trying to be as polite as possible) or speaks up of his own accord when it's of any importance.
''I think at first, people were either bored with him, or just didn't get exactly where he was coming from. [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 02]] helped shed some light on how good of an individual he is, then by the time [[Fraggedquest|Episode 04]] came out, it seemed like everyone "gets" him now. If there's one thing I regret, it's that I think I've made him come off as being invincible. He isn't, but I can see where people get that impression; I portray him more as just being very intelligent and strategic in every move he makes, but even he can't overcome someone that's just flat-out stronger than he is. I hope he'll continue to grow on people.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Gamecrazed-305764611</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''The silent-but-deadliest one of the group. Gamecrazed speaks up and takes action only when it is necessary, but our heroes know that he is a trustworthy and caring friend. He is also one of, if not THE most, skilled players in all of TOME. Much about GC's thoughts are kept mysterious, even to his arguably closest friend, Nylocke. The others respect his need to keep secrets, but there's always an air of intrigue surrounding his intentions. He battles by transforming into shadows and casting spells with dark energy.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Gamecrazed-S2-478707099</ref>
=== Season 1 ===
=== Season 2 ===
== Abilities ==
* '''Shadow Slash:''' A cutting attack, made from a slice of concentrated dark energy.
* '''Dark Bomb:''' Concentrated dark energy formed into an explosive ball that can be shot from the user's palm.
* '''Black Hand:''' The user temporarily transforms into a giant hand to perform more powerful physical attacks.
* '''Violet Thorn:''' The user wraps themselves around an enemy and squeezes, creating a flower-like pattern of spikes that protrude outward. This technique may risk damage to the user.
==Gallery==
==Trivia==
*Gamecrazed's ID number is 001-234-567. Strangely enough, in ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', his ID number is different. [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]], being the core of the game, likely chose this number when she created her character because she had seven parents, and probably manipulated the lottery in [[Year One]] so that her friends could meet them.
*Gamecrazed was the first owner of the [[Drain Edge]], which was given to him by [[Asterob (TOME)|Asterob]] in [[Mansion Midnight]]. He later gave the Drain Edge to Nylocke in [[Dragon Drama]], who subsequently used it to seal away the [[Forbidden Power]] during the events of [[The Warring Demons]].
*Gamecrazed's shoulder pads have the letters L and R, supposedly meaning "left" and "right". However, the right pad is on his left shoulder and the left pad is on his right shoulder, probably due to the fact that his body is mimicking a game system, where the users right is the systems left.
*By Nylocke's admission in [[Secret of the Netkings]], Gamecrazed is stronger than all the other main characters, and may well be the best player of TOME. This is likely because Gamecrazed is the avatar of the game's core.
*Gamecrazed has never been shown logging in or out via the walls of TOME's world. Whenever he leaves, he usually just vanishes into the ground. A notable exception, however, is when the Netkings forcibly log the group out from HOME in [[Secret of the Netkings]] with a logout beam (although it is likely that Gamecrazed simply escaped back to the game's core before the beam was fired).
*Since the introduction of SOFDTI, several events hinted that Gamecrazed and SOFDTI were the same entity before the connection was officially confirmed during the events of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]].
**Both characters struggle with having relationships with other people and have to learn what friendship means.
**The two have similar designs: SOFDTI is pink while GC is purple, both have protrusions from their backs (although SOFDTI's are wings), both have similar face shapes, both have a rounded object on their forehead (SOFDTI's is an eye), and both have slime-like arms. Also, Gamecrazed's body type is notably feminine.
**In [[Mansion Midnight]], Gamecrazed knew exactly where the Mansion was and that there were plans to raid it that night. SOFDTI, as the game's program, would have knowledge of new constructions in the game. They were also able to easily render the hole that Splat left in the wall with no apparent use of tools or programs.
**Starting in [[Fraggedquest]], Gamecrazed states that he "just can't" meet with the others outside of the game, and always becomes uncomfortable when the subject is brought up. SOFDTI, being the game's program, cannot possibly meet the players outside of the game.
**When the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] possesses Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast]], Gamecrazed immediately recognizes the danger and tells the others to getaway. He is equally surprised when he finds that [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] has defeated Alpha. SOFDTI, as the Power's creator, would know the full extent of its power.
**In [[Dragon Drama]], even before [[The Warring Demons]], it is hinted at that Gamecrazed is aware of [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]'s [[Zetto (TOME)|alter ego]], as Kirbopher tells GC he needs advice on "approaching the others about-" before he is cut off by Nylocke. From the recent events of [[Awaken the Beast]], it can be easily assumed that he is asking for advice on making up with Alpha and Flamegirl, however, he could also be speaking about revealing to them his true identity. Throughout the same episode, Gamecrazed is constantly showing that he knows everyone's emotions, although he does say (although he could be lying) he is unaware of what Flamegirl or Alpha thinks about Kirbopher's earlier actions. When fighting [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]]/[[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]] (whom he has known since she joined the [[Netking Software|Netkings]]), he tells her to "Just try and kill me. You'll find it... impossible." It is known (by Zetto telling Alpha in ''The Warring Demons'') that the Forbidden Power cannot be deleted; and programs cannot be "killed" anyway. This loans more indications that the Forbidden Power being destroyed would harm SOFDTI as well, or vice versa. In this case, Gamecrazed would really be telling Kizuna that she can never destroy her or the Forbidden Power.
**Episode 10 reveals that Gamecrazed knows of Kirbopher's [[Zetto (TOME)|secret]]. SOFDTI, having interacted with Zetto in the past, could know this.
**Gamecrazed refuses to go with the others on the infiltration mission in [[The Infiltration Mission]]. Nylocke is visibly shocked when he hears why. SOFDTI may have known that something might happen to her if the Forbidden Power is destroyed, or if the hackers get a hold of her power.
***Gamecrazed's explanation to Nylocke isn't heard, and it's never specified anywhere in the series.
**Gamecrazed and SOFDTI share the same voice actor, Casey Mongillo.
*The ''TV TOME Adventures'' version of Gamecrazed was voiced by Gregory Prytyka Jr. He made a cameo as the voice of Gamecrazed in the [[April Fools Special]].
*In [[Tears. Truth. Ambition.]], the password to SOFDTI's part of the world is GAMECRAZED.

'''Kirbopher''', sometimes shortened to "Kirb," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Swordsman]] class with an Enchanted Sword. He is later revealed to be an alternate character account of [[Zetto]], created solely for the fun of the game. Cynical and short-tempered, his character is based on that of the series creator, who shares the same username. Many people mispronounce his name, whether it be in joke or misunderstanding. As of the final episode of season 2, it's implied that 'Kirbopher' is no longer in use.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''Kirbopher’s personality has probably changed the least compared to the original, as evidenced by keeping myself as his voice performer as well.
''From a design standpoint, I opted for his “imp” design as opposed to the unoriginal albino Kirby he once was. This design was, oddly enough, drawn LONG before the original TTA started, but I was forced to go with the Kirby design mainly due to sprite editing limitations.
''Several years ago, when I decided to ditch the stigmatic “15” in my name and switch to the new design, I’ll admit at first I wasn’t too enthused. Kirbopher was, for a while, just a placeholder for Chris Frost from 'BALANCING ACT' before I was comfortable with revealing its existence to the world.
''After some time passed and I had touched up his design to look a bit more tattered (like a trouble-making thief) I grew to like it a whole lot! As far as his role in the story goes, I plan on giving him a lot more development and emotional layers this time around. Surprisingly, part of this was from my choice to not only dis-include him from the resistance against the hackers, but to have him be very uncaring about it. Kirb’s purpose on TOME is to have fun, not to get involved in time-wasting drama. [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], who grows to be one of his closest friends, understands and respects that, giving him the attention he craves in the form of constant battles. The two of them have a fun dynamic separate from the main plot involving the hackers and viruses…and that friendship of theirs will soon be jumped through hoops of fire.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kirbopher-272396614</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''The second of two accounts to a single TOME player. While this person in question is active as Kirbopher, he logs on for the sole purpose of fun and enjoyment. Alpha and company mean the world to him, but Kirb chooses to stay out of their fight against the hackers for personal reasons. He LOVES to fight and often runs his mouth if it means he can draw his sword against a new opponent. His actions are hasty and he's a bit prideful, but really he's a little softy. He battles with a magic sword with a wide variety of attacks.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kirbopher-S2-478707227</ref>
===Season 1===
[[File:Kirb.jpg|thumb|left|185px|Kirb preparing to battle Alpha]]
Kirbopher first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|episode 1]], looking down from a cliff as [[Alpha]] logs in. He challenges him to a battle and promptly loses. Kirbopher and Alpha then meet up with the rest of the gang, who are gearing up to go fight a [[Rockoon (TOME)|couple o]][[Doubling (TOME)|f hackers]] that have been terrorizing [[;Lavendera]].
Kirbopher refuses to join them, as he wants to play "the fun freakin' part of the game." He heads off into the woods to fight a few players, but ends up getting ganged up on. He fortunately runs into [[Flamegirl]] and Alpha, who reluctantly help him fend off the attackers before leaving to fight the hackers. Kirbopher appears at the end of the episode, slashing Rockoon in half as he attempts an escape. When Alpha doesn't notice his entrance, he goes berserk and initiates a battle.
[[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]] begins with Kirb logging into the game, looking for a round of late-night battles in ;Lavendera. He then runs into [[Sniperwheel]], who is ready for one last battle before logging off for the day. Kirbopher narrowly defeats him, and is about to challenge him to another match, when he sees [[Gamecrazed]] leaving the crowd.
He promptly follows him. Along the way, Nylocke joins him, and together they follow Gamecrazed to a mysterious mansion that is supposed to be off-limits. Gamecrazed enters the mansion, with the duo following him. Eventually, they lose track of him and run into [[Asterob]], who is working on completing the Mansion's graphics before it opens. Suddenly, all three of them are attacked by [[Splat]], who incapacitates Nylocke and Kirbopher before demanding Asterob's shield.
Gamecrazed appears and defends Asterob, ultimately defeating Splat. After exiting the mansion, Gamecrazed asks Nylocke and Kirbopher why they were following him. Kirbopher explains that they know almost nothing about Gamecrazed, but admits that following him probably was a dumb idea and he forgives him.
Kirbopher reappears in [[Fraggedquest|episode 4]], joining the rest of the gang on a quest to build and defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol]]. Kirbopher is chosen to find the idol's head at the edge of ;Lavendera, which he reluctantly agrees to do. He quickly finds it, but runs into Rockoon on his way back, who is not too happy about the outcome of their previous encounter. He steals the idol's head and runs off, but accidentally trips and breaks part of its ear. Kirbopher loses him, but does find the head and hurries back to the others, who have found their pieces. They assemble the idol, noting that part of its ear seems to be missing, and then wait in ;Lavendera for the moon to rise.
During the interim, the group discusses hanging out in real life, with Kirbopher being as cynical about the whole idea as ever. When the moon rises, the Shadow Guard Idol comes to life, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the monster, bonding with it and knocking Alpha out of the arena. Kirbopher and the gang's attacks have no effect until Alpha reappears and reunites the piece of the ear with Rockoon, making him vulnerable. Kirbopher uses his wind powers to help defeat Rockoon, before threatening to chop him into pieces again. Rockoon flees, and Kirbopher complains about the lack of reward for completing a hacked quest.
In [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]], Kirbopher first appears training with the others for the Gemini Tournament. He initiates a training round with Alpha, giving him pointers on how to fight with the most energy. When [[Flamegirl]] compliments Alpha on his technique, Kirbopher starts to argue with her about Alpha's friendship, insulting her, angering Alpha, and causing much discomfort for the rest of the group. Suddenly, [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]] appears and knocks Kirbopher away, before using her Sonic Screech ability to bring out the [[Forbidden Power]] inside Alpha. When Alpha turns into his demon form and destroys Tigerlilly, Kirbopher thinks that Alpha is ready for a fight and challenges him. Although they fight evenly for a good while, Kirbopher tells Alpha to show him "the real deal," and Alpha responds by attacking Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power, severely injuring him and defeating him. He is not seen for the rest of the episode.
Kirbopher reappears briefly in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], talking to Gamecrazed in ;Mechcity. When Nylocke arrives, he shows surprise at seeing Kirbopher back in the game, as he had been gone for two days. Kirbopher asks Nylocke to give him some advice. He had wanted to ask Alpha to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament, but after what he said in episode 5, he isn't sure how Alpha will react to him. Nylocke freezes, as this serious question is not something he wants to experience while playing the game. He dodges around the question, giving a vague answer about choosing the right path in friendship.
Kirbopher sighs and says he should probably just wait to talk with Alpha and Flamegirl, and Nylocke enthusiastically agrees with him. Kirbopher then asks if Nylocke would be his partner, but Nylocke also nervously dodges that question and tells Kirbopher to continue training until his "destined brother-in-arms" reveals himself. Disappointed, Kirbopher logs off, saying that he might stay away from the game for a little while longer.
Kirbopher finally logs back in [[Infectuation|Episode 7]], where he is determined to finally talk with Flamegirl and Alpha about the incident in episode 5. Unfortunately, he gets held up by [[Archy]], a rabid fan who has been following Kirbopher. Although Kirbopher repeatedly shuns him, Archy keeps attempting to ask Kirbopher to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament.
These interruptions prevent Kirbopher from getting to Alpha before he is possessed, and thus he shows up just as Flamegirl uses the anti-virus to stabilize Alpha. Misreading the situation, he meets up with them later outside the Balanstadium gates in ;Mechcity, just after Alpha and Flamegirl sign up as a team for the Gemini Tournament. Internally crushed, Kirbopher laughs it off and states that it's better this way, as he can now defeat Alpha in front of the entire world. As he dejectedly walks away, Archy reappears, and Kirbopher grudgingly accepts him as his partner.
Not getting Alpha as his partner has drastically upset his plans, so during the Gemini Tournament, Kirbopher acts much more serious and surly than normal.
In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], Kirbopher faces [[Skeight]] and Rockoon (under the guise of "Raccoon") in the first round. Archy is quickly defeated, and Rockoon disposes of Skeight at his earliest chance. Leaving the two of them alone, Rockoon attempts to defeat Kirbopher with his aptly-named "Kirb Stomp," but is impaled on Kirbopher's sword, leaving Kirbopher the victor.
When he sees Alpha and Flamegirl win their next round, he states that he is "not having a good time," but does not elaborate on what is irking him. Alpha tries to talk to him and warn him about Zetto, but Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's just wasting his time and that he's going to end this as soon as possible. In his next match, against Zetto and [[Kizuna]], he simply walks into the arena and raises his arms, allowing Zetto to destroy him instantly. He is not seen for the rest of the tournament.
Kirbopher appears briefly during the credits sequence of [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], sitting in ;Lavendera with a grieved look on his face.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Kirbopher first appears in the forest of ;Lavendera with Gamecrazed, gearing himself up to try and repair his relationship with Alpha and Flamegirl. When they do arrive, he congratulates them on their performance in the tournament, but before he can try to ask for their friendship, a large group of players assaults them, aiming for Alpha. Although the group is defeated, Alpha begins to lament that he is sick and tired of the Forbidden Power and just wants to be rid of it forever. With a guilty look, Kirbopher slips away and heads to the ;Mechcity docks, where he disconnects from the game and logs into TOME's moon as Zetto. This was the official revelation that Kirbopher is, in fact, an alternate account for Zetto. Kirbopher only reappears as himself at the end of the episode, standing in front of the crater in the Balanstadium where Zetto had been defeated, with a tired look on his face. Gamecrazed is there with him, telling him, "It's over."
===Season 2===
Kirbopher returns in [[Year One|Episode 11]], back to his usual cynical self. He is first seen walking towards ;Sanctuary from ;Mechcity, when he is challenged by Alpha. Victorious as usual, Alpha invites him to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher does indeed show up, and is present, along with Nylocke, when Gamecrazed is selected for the Challenge of the Netkings quest.
When Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join Gamecrazed's team, Kirbopher nearly refuses, but then caves in when the rest of the group insists that he join the team, "just like old times," as Alpha puts it. He then joins the gang the next day at the Netking statues, where he and the other four are taken up to HOME. He isn't fazed by the somewhat unexpected look of the first room and encourages the others to get going.
When [[Execk]] appears, Kirbopher taunts him, causing Execk to freeze him in a block of ice. Flamegirl thaws him out only after Alpha defeats Execk, stating he "needed the time out." Alpha says that Kirbopher helped him by revealing some of Execk's powers before the match, to which Kirbopher replies that he completely meant to do that. When a portal appears to the next room, Kirbopher follows Nylocke, telling him to slow down. In the next room, a large crystal cavern, Alpha says that something feels different about this area, but Kirbopher counters that it's probably just the Netking putting on a show. A giant crystal then rises out of the ground and shatters, revealing what appears to be Zetto, which absolutely shocks Kirbopher.
[[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] picks up right where Episode 11 left off. "Zetto" begins bragging in a very over-the-top, dramatic way, before revealing himself to be [[Rubirules]] in disguise. Kirbopher is incredibly weirded out by the experience, and almost starts the fight with Rubirules. Nylocke takes his place instead, saying that Rubirules' appearance as Zetto has made the battle personal. Nylocke eventually defeats Rubirules, and the group heads into the next area through another portal.
This area seems to be a temple in the clouds, and Kirbopher once again reminds the gang that the area design means nothing. [[Kindarspirit]] then appears and greets the group using her system voice. Kirbopher tells her that she doesn't need to be in character around them and that they know it's just a game. With that said, Kindarspirit reverts to her true personality and goes crazy over how cute Kirbopher is, grabbing him and hugging him. She then traps him in a cloud and sends him up to the ceiling. Flamegirl offers to "save" Kirbopher and defeats Kindarspirit. Kirbopher is freed, now very angry at his lack of battles, and the group proceeds to the next area. Before fighting the next Netking, the group discusses what their prize should be if they win.
Alpha suggests that they should set up some sort of meet-and-greet with the creators, and Kirbopher surprisingly agrees to the idea. [[Bitshrum]] then appears and challenges one of them to topple him from his throne. As Gamecrazed will fight the last Netking, Kirbopher must fight Bitshrum. Kirbopher is none too happy that he has to fight "the mushroom guy," and this is only made worse as Nylocke begins describing the glorious battle between a squire and a king. At this, Kirbopher loses his cool and charges Bitshrum, screaming that he's not a squire and he's not an imp. He carves through Bitshrum's box powers and defeats him, Super Mario Bros. style. From atop the throne, Kirbopher screams that he is the greatest player in TOME, better than any of the Netkings. After a bit of coaxing, he hops down from the throne. When the next portal opens, Nylocke allows Kirbopher to go before him, calling him "Your Majesty." Webmaster appears on the other side, and after a fierce battle, Gamecrazed defeats him.
After the group is congratulated by the Netkings, Zetto and Kizuna are revealed to be former Netkings themselves. Kirbopher notices that Alpha starts getting worked up when this is mentioned and tries to stop him before he says anything. Alpha ignores him and asks the Netkings about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Kirbopher states that the group isn't obligated to keep anything the Netkings say secret. The Netkings refuse to reveal anything when they see the Power approaching HOME and forcefully log the players out.
In Episode 13, Alpha confronts Kirbopher at a park in ;Mechcity to request his help for a mission to infiltrate D-Buggers. Kirbopher states that he's not going and snaps at Alpha, telling him he needs to stop trying to play the hero and just play the game for what it is. Alpha says he has to do this, in which Kirb remarks that he's crazy. They both part ways afterward and Kirb isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
In [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto logs back in as Kirb after being defeated by the malfunctioning Dragon Bug, having left him still in the game. He talks if he can't stop the Dragon Bug while in his current form, he adds that he at least tried to destroy the Forbidden Power, [[Kajet]]. Kirb calls the monster's attention before he attacks. Kirb puts up a good fight against the virus, but his sword is soon absorbed into the dragon and he begins to get crushed in its fist. When the Dragon Bug arrives from the moon, Kajet flings Kirb's damaged model into Sanctuary, where Alpha finds him unstable and unconscious.
==Personality==
Kirbopher aims to enjoy himself in TOME, choosing not to get involved in 'drama' that he considers pointless. He's shown to be very hyperactive, short-tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied by his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10. Though he's snarky and sarcastic towards his friends, and can get annoyed with them sometimes (especially Nylocke), he is shown to care deeply about them, and has a sensitive side that he seems to prefer not to show.
Throughout the series, he is shown to have a tendency of taking his anger/frustrations out on other people. From Episode 1, he decides to defeat Rockoon, despite the other already running away, out of frustration that the hacker isn't following his (Zetto's) orders.
It's also implied that Kirbopher has issues controlling his jealousy. In Episode 5, he's clearly envious of the newfound attention that Alpha receives following his defeat of the hackers, responding poorly to the compliments Flamegirl gives the other. He is also jealous of the attention that Alpha gives her. In the fact bubble for Episode 5, it's stated that he is "very attached" to Alpha as a friend<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlbwGkbWLg</ref>, and within the episode, he insults Flamegirl her by calling her a cougar, seemingly implying that he wants her to back off of the other.
As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, offering up the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. Though he probably does wish could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in [[Plan Z|Short #7]] that the 'Kirbopher' account was created to as an escape from his search for the Forbidden Power, and to enjoy TOME for how it should've been, just hanging out with his friends.
He has a tendency to talk to himself.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
[[File:Kirb_with_friends.jpg|thumb|left|188px|Kirbopher challenges Alpha to another match.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Kirbopher and Alpha are very good friends, and seem to have known each other for quite a while. Kirbopher sees Alpha as a friendly rival to test his skills against, though sometimes he gets jealous of the amount of attention Alpha gets. In the latter half of season 1, however, they become rather distant from each other ever since Alpha unintentionally hurt him with the Forbidden Power in episode 5. After an argument with Flamegirl, Kirbopher feels bad for how he acted and wants to apologize. In Infectuation, Alpha is relieved that Kirbopher is all right, but Kirbopher gets upset when Alpha says that Flamegirl is his partner for the Gemini Tournament as he thought his plan would've gone smoother. Later on in the season, he seem to be even more distant from the group because of the circumstances with the Forbidden Power.<br /><br />Fortunately, by the events of the second season, Alpha has moved on from the Gemini Tournament conflicts, and insists that Kirbopher join the group on the Challenge of the Netkings quest. Things are back to normal until Episode 13, where Kirb and Alpha's conflicting goals and views cause them to separate once again.
[[File:Kirb_with_nylocke.jpg|thumb|right|188px|Kirb with Nylocke in the mansion.]]
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Although Nylocke and Kirbopher tend to get along with each other pretty well, Nylocke is the one who Kirbopher shows aggravation at the most out of anyone else. However, when Kirbopher is feeling upset in episode 6, he immediately goes to Nylocke for help, even though Nylocke is unable to give him a straight answer. Kirbopher even considered asking Nylocke to be his partner if his plan didn't turn out as he hoped.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': Kirbopher and Flamegirl are good friends but before he seemed to generally dislike Flamegirl. There are times where he insults her about her feelings for Alpha, and because of that they often get into fights and arguments with each other. They disagree on several things, such as whether or not their time in TOME should be spent fighting hackers instead of playing the game like normal. In season 2 however, their relationship has gotten better but they still tease each other in a more playful manner.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Due to his quiet nature, Gamecrazed has not had much interaction with Kirbopher. In episode 2, Kirbopher and Nylocke attempt to tail Gamecrazed in order to learn more about him. The attempt is foiled, however, when Splat attacks the mansion. Gamecrazed was also the first person Kirbopher talks to after his fallout with Alpha and Flamegirl, and it is hinted that Gamecrazed may be privy to Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]].
*'''[[Archy]]''': Kirbopher tolerates Archy at best and outright insults him at worst. Although not stated, it is implied that Archy has been following him for quite some time, causing Kirbopher to become rather annoyed when he appears. Archy becomes his Gemini partner only because Kirbopher's other choices (Alpha and Nylocke) were taken.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher is an alternative account of Zetto. It was through Kirbopher that Zetto was able to monitor Alpha's condition. There are several occasions where Kirbopher logs in both as Zetto and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposely let Kirbopher take Zetto's Breaker Beam in order to continue through the Gemini Tournament as Zetto; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually log himself in as Zetto to confront Alpha and the [[Forbidden Power]]. After a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control, his body badly damaged.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Although Kirbopher does not actively fight the hackers, his accidental encounter with Rockoon has caused the two to have a mutual aversion to each other. However, in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], he seems to be sympathetic towards Rockoon after he witnesses Rockoon's fallout with [[Skeight]]. This may be due to him seeing the kind of trouble that occurs when a person uses two characters at the same time without admitting they are the same person.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Spin Slash''': An aerial cutting attack in which the user spins rapidly into a powerful cut. This technique can be turned into a Shockwave upon finishing.
*'''Ice Knives''': A projectile attack where a swarm of sharp icicles spread out from a slash of the user’s weapon.
*'''Dust Tornado''': A slow, but forceful projectile attack that can entrap the opponent and allows for a swift follow-up combo.
*'''Shockwave''': A powerful attack that travels along the ground and trips up the opponent upon impact.

==Trivia==
*Kirbopher and TOME in general make allusions to the number "11" in some shape or form.
**The release date for [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]] was 11-11-11, and the end of the original About TOME trailer showed Kirbopher running up and slicing the date in half.
**In the original ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Kirbopher was named "Kirbopher15". 15 is 1111 in binary.
**In Episode 10, the time when Alpha arrives at Balanstadium to meet Zetto is 11:11:11.
**Episode 11 shows Kirbopher's player ID is 001-501-111.
*During Episode 11 of ''TV TOME Adventures'', in which [https://kirbopher15.deviantart.com/art/Tsuzuku-14427657 Tsuzuku] (who would become [[Tsuzuku]] in TOME) would repeatedly call Kirbopher15 "Kirbofour15".
**This was also referenced in the [[April Fools Special]] short, in which a spoofed version of Kirbopher15 appears, named Kirbo4.
* His design seems to be loosely inspired by [[w:c:zelda:Link|Link]] from ''[[w:c:zelda:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
*Chris Niosi, along with Alpha's voice actor Blake Swift, sings TOME's first season main theme ("[[Battle On!]]").
*Kirbopher's height is somewhat inconsistent. He is clearly the shortest of the others, but in some scenes, he stands more than a foot shorter than his friends, and in other shots he is almost as tall as Alpha or Flamegirl.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in Episode 10 and Plan Z, clues were dropped throughout The Gemini Tournament arc and Episode 10 to indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person.
**Both Zetto and Kirbopher were interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher stood immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
**With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
** Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines are both, "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say, "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!"
**As Webmaster stated at the end of Episode 10, players who left the game without logging off remained in the game with their eyes turned grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after losing to Alpha after being controlled by the Forbidden Power, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Another clue exclusive to the "Kirbopher" account is in Episode 7 he hears Demon Alpha's scream and panics a bit, also telling Archy to get lost, implying that he already knows about the Forbidden Power.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor, although this was not revealed until Episode 10.
**Also, in Episode 1, during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.

'''Kizuna''' (born '''Lily'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>) is a major character in TOME. Kizuna was formerly Netking Number 7, who was responsible for bug-testing the game, but after the [[Episode 0|original incident]] with the [[Forbidden Power]], she and her partner, [[Zetto]], split off from the Netkings. She acts as the administrator of D-Buggers.org, disguising herself under her alternate armored form, Tigerlilly. She is an [[Animalistic]] character with the power of sharpshooting.
==Appearance==
[[File:Tome kizuna.png|150px|thumb|left]]Kizuna has three different forms. Her standard form is humanoid, with long red-brown hair in a large low ponytail and a multipurpose pistol. Her season 1 design features a navy poncho and skirt, a light grey bodysuit underneath, and matching light grey arm gloves and knee-high boots. She also wears a brown belt with a pistol holster. Her season 2 design is similar, but has a redder palette overall; the navy poncho and skirt are absent from her design, and her light grey bodysuit is instead dark red.
Her second "legal" form is a small red cat; in season 1, her cat form dons a green collar with a golden bell and a matching tail band, while in season 2, both turn gold. Her third form is a hacked version of her "Beast Armor" ability, named Tigerlilly. This form is a quadrupedal mechanical beast with large claws, 4 green eyes, and some cat-like qualities, such as small triangular ears. It is noticeably larger than other players.
== Personality ==
Kizuna has little character development over the series, but she is shown to be able to focus intently on one task without letting other things distract her. For example, her participation in the Gemini Tournament with Zetto was nothing more to her than a favor, since it was just part of the plan to get the Forbidden Power. This can lead her to be curt and narrow-minded at times, as she sees her goals as the most important at any moment in time. While she is patient, having to wait several weeks to let certain schemes play out, she gets frustrated easily when something goes awry.
Based on her behavior in Episode 15, it can be concluded that Kizuna's cold and detached attitude stems from her desire to keep Zetto safe, and her insecurities around having her feelings exposed. She gets increasingly upset when she says that SOFDTI could very easily release another virus that could hurt Zetto or cause him to go crazy trying to get rid of it, showing a more emotional and paranoid side of her that wishes to protect the one she cares about.
In Episode 00 (File: 00), it was revealed that Kizuna's personality used to be far more easygoing and lighthearted. After SOFDTI openly revealed her feelings for Zetto, she closed herself off and became irritable and frustrated, with her negative feelings only growing stronger after the incident with the Shadowguard Beast.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''I knew "[[Ruri (TTA)|Ruri]]" was a character I wanted to go in an entirely different direction with this time and I felt my idea was a better route to go in the long run. Changing her to a completely different entity, now known as "Kizuna" (Which means "bond" in Japanese, and also contains the word "Kizu" which means "scratch") I decided to have her be the employer of the various hackers seen throughout the show, hiring them for different tasks in an attempt to capture a mysterious item she names "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]". There was another equivalent character in TTA named "[[Voltarius (TTA)|Voltarius]]"; the hacker leader disguised in a powerful armored-suit.
''Using that basic idea, Kizuna is the player's original account and "[[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]]", the metallic cat-monster that attacks our heroes at certain moments, would be her disguise. In truth, she has hacked her "beast armor" technique to last for as long as necessary in order to keep herself hidden and protected when the situation calls. She also takes the form of a small cat when trying to be further discreet.
''Kizuna's cold and professional attitude made for a good foil to [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]'s smarminess and confidence; keeping him in line and showing an implied deep history between the two. Since she's been around since the beginning of TOME, having her be a purely-skilled player made it fun to animate her fight scenes with such limited attacks. There's a lot about her mysteriousness that makes it fun to try and figure out what she's thinking. While her "Kizuna attacks" are unchanged, her disguise, Tigerlilly, has two abilities that are hacked. The metallic cat was a design I had come up with years ago for another project and had a lot of fun drawing during its appearance. The sonic screech attack was also an interesting quirk; meant to be another technique Kizuna hacked to be so loud and tweaked that it could physically strain any surrounding players that hear it, in order to distract our heroes and rile up the forbidden power.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kizuna-423083520</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''A cold, bitter and professional woman who, along with her partner Zetto, has been registered since the public release of TOME. She operates under the pseudonym "Tigerlilly" to hire hackers for the purpose of finding and potentially erasing The Forbidden Power. Kizuna keeps her personal business and thoughts buried deep down from absolutely anyone and has become unhealthily focused on her mission since Zetto's life was put in danger. She battles with her trusty handgun and never misses.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kizuna-S2-478707534</ref>
=== Season 1 ===
Although Kizuna's first appearance as herself was in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|episode 8]], her first technical appearance was in [[Mansion Midnight]], as D-Buggers.org. This is her only "character" appearance until the Gemini Tournament begins. As D-Buggers.org, Kizuna gives the six hackers different jobs to work towards capturing the Forbidden Power. Her first appearance in her cat form is in [[Highest Form of Flattery|episode 3]], walking past The Platform while [[Saturndiva]] and [[Whyti]] are chatting with [[Flamegirl]] about [[Alpha]].
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC.png|thumb]]
She then appears as Tigerlilly for the first time in [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]] while the main cast are training for the Gemini Tournament in ;Lavendera. Using her Sonic Screech, Tigerlilly riles up the Forbidden Power inside of Alpha, causing him to lose control. Demon Alpha attacks Tigerlilly; however, Kizuna disconnects from the game right before she's defeated, likely to avoid the pain the Forbidden Power would cause.
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC2.png|thumb]]Tigerlilly appears again in [[Dragon Drama|episode 6]], after [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Nylocke]] have successfully reunited [[Hyprelynx]] and [[Elescope]] in ;Mechcity. Tigerlilly leaps from the Moon and attacks the party, nearly defeating them, but she is defeated by Gamecrazed when he uses the [[Drain Edge]] to absorb her attacks. It is unknown why Tigerlilly appears in this episode, but it's most likely that she was attempting to steal the Drain Edge from Gamecrazed, planning to use it to seal the Forbidden Power away.
In episode 8, Kizuna appears in human form for the first time, acting as Zetto's partner for the Gemini Tournament. She has a casual demeanor throughout the tournament, easily defeating opponents and telling Zetto that the whole thing isn't a big deal for her. After taking out the [[Tsuzuku|Twin]] [[Shogun|Blades]], [[Kirbopher]], and Alpha and Flamegirl, Kizuna and Zetto reach the final round against Gamecrazed and Nylocke. The battle is very close, with both sides virtually matched, but Nylocke and Gamecrazed forfeit in order to make a point about fun. At the end of the episode, Kizuna is seen at the trophy ceremony, holding her side of the trophy with a frustrated look on her face.
=== Season 2 ===
[[File:KizunaCatSeason2.png|thumb]][[File:VirusHunt.png|thumb]]Kizuna reappears in [[Year One|Episode 11]] with a redder palette overall. She first appears in her cat form, overlooking the main cast as they take care of [[Odboll]] and complain to the moderators of ;Sanctuary. After that, she teleports to the Moon, where she has set up a monitor overlooking ;Sanctuary to search for the Forbidden Power after its disappearance in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. Zetto appears as well, and the two argue over how TOME isn't just a game, and that the Forbidden Power is a real threat. Kizuna believes it should be captured as a tool, but Zetto is fully convinced that the Forbidden Power must be destroyed. Later in the Episode, Kizuna can be seen in the Moon again, frustrated that she cannot find the Forbidden Power.
Kizuna appears again at the end of [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], once again in the Moon. Zetto arrives to tell her that the Netkings will be making their move the next day. When he asks her what to do, Kizuna tells him that she has to make some important calls.
The next time she appears is at the end of [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], where she is giving instructions to Odboll.
In [[Episode 0]], Kizuna appears with a different design that has aspects of both her season 1 design and season 2 design; her color scheme is the same as her season 1 design, but her hair is more like her season 2 design. Instead of her typical handgun, she wields a wooden staff. She is seen messing around with Zetto, teasing him playfully, when [[SOFDTI]] comments that they both have strong feelings for each other. Kizuna has an outburst at this, insulting SOFDTI and asking her to stay out of her head. She is there again when Zetto fights against the [[Kajet]], with [[Webmaster]] telling her to spot for bugs. She jokingly taunts Zetto, who sighs in response. When he attempts to fight Kajet, she notices the Forbidden Power entering it, and tries to stop Zetto from fighting it.
Her next appearance is in [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], where she is discussing with Zetto about whether or not they can pull off their plan. She guarantees that this is their only chance to strike, and that whatever the [[Netkings]] are going to try will not work. She says that they are almost ready to launch before heading down to make sure things run smoothly. When Alpha and [[Neomutant]] enter the hacker base, she attacks them as Tigerlilly. She manages to defeat Neomutant, but Alpha breaks her armor, and she flees in cat form. Later on, she drops down from the ceiling while Alpha and Flamegirl are talking, putting her handgun to Alpha's head. When the [[Dragon Bug]] activates and Flamegirl glows pink, she remarks that it 'isn't supposed to happen,' which Zetto affirms. She is shocked when Flamegirl is absorbed into the Dragon Bug, and watches as Zetto tries to shut it down, questioning what he is doing.
[[File:ThreateningSOFDTI.png|thumb]][[File:BreakingTigerlilly.png|thumb]]In Episode 15, Kizuna joins the group, woefully remarking that the Dragon Bug and Forbidden Power must have cancelled each other out. She helps in hunting down [[Rubirules]], and it's revealed that she's known he was behind it all, like Zetto. She is the first to pursue him, asking Zetto if he's coming with her. The two of them make it underground, but she is removed from the battle after she turns into Tigerlilly and her armor is broken by Rubirules. After his defeat by Alpha, Kizuna gets back up and attempts to kill SOFDTI. She says that SOFDTI will just read her mind again, and how she is a pest that needs to be destroyed. She says she is mad at her because she, due to creating the virus, almost took Zetto away from her. She tries to get SOFDTI to say her feelings for Zetto, but Zetto shoots her in the back to protect SOFDTI. Shocked, she looks back at him, before she is defeated.
== Abilities ==
[[File:SonicScreech.png|thumb]]
* '''Golden Bullet:''' Infinite ammo fired from the user's weapon. She is extremely skilled with her handgun and never misses.
* '''Cat-like Reflex:''' An agility-boosting power-up that combines with the user's physical attacks for deadly accuracy.
* '''Beast Armor:''' Creates a temporary metallic shell that slows the user's speed but increases their physical offense and defensive powers. This ability was hacked to last as long as needed for her mission.
* '''Sonic Screech:''' A powerful sound-wave attack that can cover a large area. This technique was hacked to be so loud that it could physically strain any surrounding players that hear it, often used as a distraction.
Kizuna also has the ability to change into a small cat; this is likely another hacked skill.

==Trivia==
*"Kizuna" means "bond" or "ties" in Japanese, foreshadowing her previously strong bond with Zetto. It also contains the word "Kizu" which means "scratch."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kizuna-423083520</ref>

'''Kizuna''' (born '''Lily'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>) is a major character in TOME. Kizuna was formerly Netking Number 7, who was responsible for bug-testing the game, but after the [[Episode 0|original incident]] with the [[Forbidden Power]], she and her partner, [[Zetto]], split off from the Netkings. She acts as the administrator of D-Buggers.org, disguising herself under her alternate armored form, Tigerlilly. She is an [[Animalistic]] character with the power of sharpshooting.
==Appearance==
Kizuna has three different forms. Her standard form is humanoid, with light red skin, long red-brown hair in a large low-ponytail, and a multipurpose pistol. Her season 1 design features a navy poncho and skirt, a light grey bodysuit underneath, and matching light grey arm gloves and knee-high boots. She also wears a brown belt with a pistol holster. Her season 2 design is similar, but has a redder palette overall; the navy poncho and skirt are absent from her design, and her light grey bodysuit is instead dark red.
Her second "legal" form is a small red cat; in season 1, her cat form dons a green collar with a golden bell and a matching tail band, while in season 2, both turn gold. Her third form is a hacked version of her "Beast Armor" ability, named Tigerlilly. This form is a quadrupedal mechanical beast with large claws, 4 green eyes, and some cat-like qualities, such as small triangular ears. It is noticeably larger than other players.
== Personality ==
Kizuna has little character development over the series, but she is shown to be able to focus intently on one task without letting other things distract her. For example, her participation in the Gemini Tournament with Zetto was nothing more to her than a favor, since it was just part of the plan to get the Forbidden Power. This can lead her to be curt and narrow-minded at times, as she sees her goals as the most important at any moment in time. While she is patient, having to wait several weeks to let certain schemes play out, she gets frustrated easily when something goes awry.
Based on her behavior in Episode 15, it can be concluded that Kizuna's cold and detached attitude stems from her desire to keep Zetto safe, and her insecurities around having her feelings exposed. She gets increasingly upset when she says that SOFDTI could very easily release another virus that could hurt Zetto or cause him to go crazy trying to get rid of it, showing a more emotional and paranoid side of her that wishes to protect the one she cares about.
In Episode 00 (File: 00), it was revealed that Kizuna's personality used to be far more easygoing and lighthearted. After SOFDTI openly revealed her feelings for Zetto, she closed herself off and became irritable and frustrated, with her negative feelings only growing stronger after the incident with the Shadowguard Beast.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''I knew "[[Ruri (TTA)|Ruri]]" was a character I wanted to go in an entirely different direction with this time and I felt my idea was a better route to go in the long run. Changing her to a completely different entity, now known as "Kizuna" (Which means "bond" in Japanese, and also contains the word "Kizu" which means "scratch") I decided to have her be the employer of the various hackers seen throughout the show, hiring them for different tasks in an attempt to capture a mysterious item she names "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]". There was another equivalent character in TTA named "[[Voltarius (TTA)|Voltarius]]"; the hacker leader disguised in a powerful armored-suit.
''Using that basic idea, Kizuna is the player's original account and "[[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]]", the metallic cat-monster that attacks our heroes at certain moments, would be her disguise. In truth, she has hacked her "beast armor" technique to last for as long as necessary in order to keep herself hidden and protected when the situation calls. She also takes the form of a small cat when trying to be further discreet.
''Kizuna's cold and professional attitude made for a good foil to [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]]'s smarminess and confidence; keeping him in line and showing an implied deep history between the two. Since she's been around since the beginning of TOME, having her be a purely-skilled player made it fun to animate her fight scenes with such limited attacks. There's a lot about her mysteriousness that makes it fun to try and figure out what she's thinking. While her "Kizuna attacks" are unchanged, her disguise, Tigerlilly, has two abilities that are hacked. The metallic cat was a design I had come up with years ago for another project and had a lot of fun drawing during its appearance. The sonic screech attack was also an interesting quirk; meant to be another technique Kizuna hacked to be so loud and tweaked that it could physically strain any surrounding players that hear it, in order to distract our heroes and rile up the forbidden power.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kizuna-423083520</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''A cold, bitter and professional woman who, along with her partner Zetto, has been registered since the public release of TOME. She operates under the pseudonym "Tigerlilly" to hire hackers for the purpose of finding and potentially erasing The Forbidden Power. Kizuna keeps her personal business and thoughts buried deep down from absolutely anyone and has become unhealthily focused on her mission since Zetto's life was put in danger. She battles with her trusty handgun and never misses.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kizuna-S2-478707534</ref>
=== Season 1 ===
Although Kizuna's first appearance as herself was in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|episode 8]], her first technical appearance was in [[Mansion Midnight]], as D-Buggers.org. This is her only "character" appearance until the Gemini Tournament begins. As D-Buggers.org, Kizuna gives the six hackers different jobs to work towards capturing the Forbidden Power. Her first appearance in her cat form is in [[Highest Form of Flattery|episode 3]], walking past The Platform while [[Saturndiva]] and [[Whyti]] are chatting with [[Flamegirl]] about [[Alpha]].
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC.png|thumb]]
She then appears as Tigerlilly for the first time in [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]] while the main cast are training for the Gemini Tournament in ;Lavendera. Using her Sonic Screech, Tigerlilly riles up the Forbidden Power inside of Alpha, causing him to lose control. Demon Alpha attacks Tigerlilly; however, Kizuna disconnects from the game right before she's defeated, likely to avoid the pain the Forbidden Power would cause.
[[File:TigerlilyAttackingGC2.png|thumb]]Tigerlilly appears again in [[Dragon Drama|episode 6]], after [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Nylocke]] have successfully reunited [[Hyprelynx]] and [[Elescope]] in ;Mechcity. Tigerlilly leaps from the Moon and attacks the party, nearly defeating them, but she is defeated by Gamecrazed when he uses the [[Drain Edge]] to absorb her attacks. It is unknown why Tigerlilly appears in this episode, but it's most likely that she was attempting to steal the Drain Edge from Gamecrazed, planning to use it to seal the Forbidden Power away.
In episode 8, Kizuna appears in human form for the first time, acting as Zetto's partner for the Gemini Tournament. She has a casual demeanor throughout the tournament, easily defeating opponents and telling Zetto that the whole thing isn't a big deal for her. After taking out the [[Tsuzuku|Twin]] [[Shogun|Blades]], [[Kirbopher]], and Alpha and Flamegirl, Kizuna and Zetto reach the final round against Gamecrazed and Nylocke. The battle is very close, with both sides virtually matched, but Nylocke and Gamecrazed forfeit in order to make a point about fun. At the end of the episode, Kizuna is seen at the trophy ceremony, holding her side of the trophy with a frustrated look on her face.
=== Season 2 ===
[[File:KizunaCatSeason2.png|thumb]][[File:VirusHunt.png|thumb]]Kizuna reappears in [[Year One|Episode 11]] with a redder palette overall. She first appears in her cat form, overlooking the main cast as they take care of [[Odboll]] and complain to the moderators of ;Sanctuary. After that, she teleports to the Moon, where she has set up a monitor overlooking ;Sanctuary to search for the Forbidden Power after its disappearance in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. Zetto appears as well, and the two argue over how TOME isn't just a game, and that the Forbidden Power is a real threat. Kizuna believes it should be captured as a tool, but Zetto is fully convinced that the Forbidden Power must be destroyed. Later in the Episode, Kizuna can be seen in the Moon again, frustrated that she cannot find the Forbidden Power.
Kizuna appears again at the end of [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], once again in the Moon. Zetto arrives to tell her that the Netkings will be making their move the next day. When he asks her what to do, Kizuna tells him that she has to make some important calls.
The next time she appears is at the end of [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], where she is giving instructions to Odboll.
In [[Episode 0]], Kizuna appears with a different design that has aspects of both her season 1 design and season 2 design; her color scheme is the same as her season 1 design, but her hair is more like her season 2 design. Instead of her typical handgun, she wields a wooden staff. She is seen messing around with Zetto, teasing him playfully, when [[SOFDTI]] comments that they both have strong feelings for each other. Kizuna has an outburst at this, insulting SOFDTI and asking her to stay out of her head. She is there again when Zetto fights against the [[Kajet]], with [[Webmaster]] telling her to spot for bugs. She jokingly taunts Zetto, who sighs in response. When he attempts to fight Kajet, she notices the Forbidden Power entering it, and tries to stop Zetto from fighting it.
Her next appearance is in [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], where she is discussing with Zetto about whether or not they can pull off their plan. She guarantees that this is their only chance to strike, and that whatever the [[Netkings]] are going to try will not work. She says that they are almost ready to launch before heading down to make sure things run smoothly. When Alpha and [[Neomutant]] enter the hacker base, she attacks them as Tigerlilly. She manages to defeat Neomutant, but Alpha breaks her armor, and she flees in cat form. Later on, she drops down from the ceiling while Alpha and Flamegirl are talking, putting her handgun to Alpha's head. When the [[Dragon Bug]] activates and Flamegirl glows pink, she remarks that it 'isn't supposed to happen,' which Zetto affirms. She is shocked when Flamegirl is absorbed into the Dragon Bug, and watches as Zetto tries to shut it down, questioning what he is doing.
[[File:ThreateningSOFDTI.png|thumb]][[File:BreakingTigerlilly.png|thumb]]In Episode 15, Kizuna joins the group, woefully remarking that the Dragon Bug and Forbidden Power must have cancelled each other out. She helps in hunting down [[Rubirules]], and it's revealed that she's known he was behind it all, like Zetto. She is the first to pursue him, asking Zetto if he's coming with her. The two of them make it underground, but she is removed from the battle after she turns into Tigerlilly and her armor is broken by Rubirules. After his defeat by Alpha, Kizuna gets back up and attempts to kill SOFDTI. She says that SOFDTI will just read her mind again, and how she is a pest that needs to be destroyed. She says she is mad at her because she, due to creating the virus, almost took Zetto away from her. She tries to get SOFDTI to say her feelings for Zetto, but Zetto shoots her in the back to protect SOFDTI. Shocked, she looks back at him, before she is defeated.
== Abilities ==
[[File:SonicScreech.png|thumb]]
* '''Golden Bullet:''' Infinite ammo fired from the user's weapon. She is extremely skilled with her handgun and never misses.
* '''Cat-like Reflex:''' An agility-boosting power-up that combines with the user's physical attacks for deadly accuracy.
* '''Beast Armor:''' Creates a temporary metallic shell that slows the user's speed but increases their physical offense and defensive powers. This ability was hacked to last as long as needed for her mission.
* '''Sonic Screech:''' A powerful sound-wave attack that can cover a large area. This technique was hacked to be so loud that it could physically strain any surrounding players that hear it, often used as a distraction.
Kizuna also has the ability to change into a small cat; this is likely another hacked skill.

Neomutant is a hacker first seen in Episode 7, hired by Tigerlilly to test the Antivirus's efficiency after it was implanted on its carrier. He is in the Fighter class and has the power of electricity. He was in reality first hired by Rubirules to encode the Antivirus well before Kizuna thought of hiring him, and it was he who proposed Flamegirl as the carrier because of his unsatisfied, lingering feelings for her, that would fuel the program and make it powerful enough, providing him with a revenge when she would suffer the effects of the Dragon Bug's creation.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''This character and the story that went with him was actually one of my favorites from TvTome Adventures, so when it came to finally doing [[Infectuation|Episode 07]] I wanted special attention to be paid to Alpha, Flamegirl and Neomutant. In particular, I wanted to help develop Flamegirl as a character and took Neomutant as an opportunity to flesh her out. I “upgraded” his stalker-ness to being a pursuer of Flamey’s in real life, as well as in the game.
''Although some of their history is a mystery for now, I wanted it to be very clear to the audience that it was a one-sided affection on Neo’s part. His charismatic tendencies are meant to be a cover-up for his own lack of self-esteem and to mask his otherwise selfish and chauvinistic intentions. Although Neomutant doesn’t come off as a good person, he was a LOT of fun to write, record and animate. Even in the original, I had wanted Neo to have a slight hint of a Spanish accent and was finally able to cast him appropriately. I had a certain actor in mind for Neo for YEARS, but due to unavailability was not able to get them. Thankfully, Chris Guerrero, who fit the bill perfectly, did me a HUGE favor and filled in as the voice. His performance really helped make the episode and the character memorable and I hope Neo becomes another fan-favorite of the series’ bad guys!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Neomutant-366478015</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''A talented hacker who fancies himself a suave, smooth-talker. Neomutant was hired by D-Buggers.org to help co-develop an antivirus program for combating the Forbidden Power and was then sent to test it on a then-infected Alpha. Outside of TOME, he also attended the same high school as Flamegirl and had an unrequited crush on her for quite a while. He re-appears before our heroes and presents them some key information that could turn everything around and stop the hackers' sinister plans. In battle, he fights with raw electricity to overwhelm anyone who opposes him.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Neomutant-S2-501845937</ref>
===Season 1===
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Although he is a hacker, he appears to embrace this condition solely to pursue Flamegirl and make sure Alpha doesn't hurt her, prolonging his one-sided affection. At one point, he comments, "To think this child was my competition," signifying his jealousy towards Alpha.
He was described by Chris Niosi to have a low self-esteem, as well as being highly charismatic, and paradoxically rather prone to flaunting his intellectual prowess. Flamegirl openly recognizes that he is mentally gifted, and an excellent programmer.
Neomutant is notable in that all of the apparent traits and motives he exhbits since his apparition only are a cover-up for the deep hatred he harbors for his former love, and are part of a general betrayal revenge plan. When having the opportunity to suggest a carrier for the Antivirus, he covertly proposed for it to be Flamegirl, tricking Rubirules into believing she would not be harmed, even though his implementation of the power source would risk causing her serious brain damage.
In watching the events unfold, he acted as though he still loved her and even held a sense of honor and justice in Episodes 13 and 14, simply in order to lure her into getting trapped inside TOME's moon. Neomutant is consequently extremely vicious and manipulative, which is only revealed in Episode 15, in addition to his psychopathic sadism. Chris Niosi has posited that he was most certainly arrested alongside Rubirules, for having done "even worse things" than him.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]]''': When Rubirules came to Flamegirl and Neomutant's high school to give a lecture on programming, he spotted Neomutant's programming skills and secretly hired him to encode the Antivirus. Later, when Stephanie refused to join him in his secret work, he elaborated a complex revenge plan and proposed her as a guinea pig to Rubirules, making sure to pretend she wouldn't be hurt, as he knew Rubirules wanted to feel righteous about his own motives.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': Neomutant has some history with Flamegirl, as he used to be in a computer coding class with her in high school. She respected his skill in coding, but he misinterpreted her kindness towards him as affection. He pretends to still harbor strong feelings for her, and fakes protecting her from Alpha when he loses control to the Forbidden Power - while, in reality, he does everything to elicit a response from the virus and push her in its way to trigger the purple flame. His sole goal is to avenge her refusal of his love by hurting her via the creation of the Dragon Bug. His life revolves around that objective to a maniacal degree.
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Neomutant first meets Alpha in Episode 7, and takes an instant disliking to him. He is quite visibly jealous of Alpha's relationship with Flamegirl. After temporarily paralyzing Alpha, the Forbidden Power takes control of Alpha's body and Neomutant attempts to fight him. In Episode 13, Alpha is forced to ally with him in order to infiltrate D-Buggers' base of operations, in a staged scenario created by Rubirules, Kizuna and Zetto to bring the Dragon Bug pieces together. This leaves their relationship strained in Episode 14 when the security alarm within the base is activated, but Neomutant, playing his part in this scenario, ultimately defends Alpha and helps him fight [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]] before being defeated. This doesn't change the fact that Neomutant very seemingly enjoys Alpha's distress upon him learning of his true goal. He comments about how "it's almost poetic how everything fell into place", since the human emotions of Flamegirl needed for the Dragon Bug were thanks to Alpha.
==Abilities==
*'''Zigzagzap''': A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Thunder Charge''': The user is struck by lightning that temporarily boosts their strength and can damage an opponent upon close impact.
*'''Drum Sparks''': Six electrical orbs appear around the user and are launched in succession at the opponent like a cannon.
==Trivia==
*Neomutant's season 1 design is similar to Deoxys from Pokémon. Both have red-orange as a primary color, have a similar body shape, are tall, and have similar colored items on their bodies. The TTA version of Neomutant looked even more like Deoxys, as far as having similar colors, shapes, designs, and object locations. This was because TTA's Neomutant was a sprite edit of Deoxys.
*Even though he has said to have given up on being together with Flamegirl, Neomutant does everything to make it seem like he still has strong feelings for her, going as far to protect her from Alpha when taken over by the Forbidden Power, and saying to his "employer" - who actually only is the pawn of his true boss - "I'll live, but I don't want [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Stephanie]] to get hurt again. This had better not get out of hand!"
*Neomutant is one of two secondary characters to have a unique theme song (Spanish Drive). The other is [[Serpentine (TOME)|Serpentine]].
*Neomutant has spiky fangs underneath his mask, representing how Neomutant is a cruel, manipulative person behind his caring facade.

'''Nylocke''', sometimes called "'''Nye'''", is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], a [[Swordsman]] with the power of ice. He is notable as a skilled fighter but also as a role player, who acts as the character his model pictures and almost never breaks this facade, regardless of the current situation. On very few occasions - usually, when he is shaken or feels the need, to be honest with someone - his true personality has broken through. His character model was created by [[Rubirules]] as a prize to the 1,111,111th player to dissimulate the code for the head of the [[Dragon Bug]].
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Nylocke is a role-player, a player who likes to pretend and act like the character that they play as. He has the habit of giving himself special titles; he will jump into the air and shout "Nylocke!" followed by a title relevant to the situation that generally begins with "Master of..." or "Dragon of...". He is good natured, extremely extroverted and very friendly towards any player he meets, going so far as to help complete strangers, such as [[Elescope]] and [[Hyprelynx]]. He is an old friend of [[Gamecrazed]], who was possibly the first user Nylocke met in TOME, and serves as a kind of older brother to [[Flamegirl]]. He tends to call male players "Sir (username)" and female players "Lady (username)," but notably, Nylocke frequently refers to [[Kirbopher]] as "squire" instead. He also frequently pronounces Kirbopher's name incorrectly, though he never means to annoy and eventually comes to correct himself later.
When he is faced with a battle, Nylocke usually acts focused and eager to test his abilities with sportsmanship, and views his opponents as fellow colleagues to have fun with, rather then competitors. When it comes to hackers, however, he displays a strong sense of furious justice, often referring to them as "vile" or "criminals."
In [[Dragon Drama]], it is also revealed that his real life is rough and being in character on TOME is one of the only times he really enjoys himself, which is why he rarely breaks character and prefers to block out anything that doesn't correspond to his idea of fun. This is the first of only a few times in the show that Nylocke breaks character, symbolized by black, reptilian pupils appearing in his eyes.
It is implied that Nylocke has attracted quite a following within the game's community itself due to his over-the-top performance, to the point that several players have deep ties to him. These include [[Serpentine]], a roleplayer who considers himself Nylocke's eternal rival after initially being rejected by him, and [[Demonking]], who was dissuaded from his job as a hacker through Nylocke's persuasion before eventually becoming a roleplayer himself. [[Whyti]] and Hyprelynx seem to admire Nylocke as well, imitating his famous "WHOOSH!" when dashing into a situation.
== Biography ==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''So, with this being a very popular character and the main source of comedy relief, I wanted to give special attention to the newly-christened "Nylocke". From the very first sketches I drew of his redesign, I had already come up with his new personality, based on that now-infamous pose of him shouting in the air "NYLOCKE! INSERT CLEVER MONIKER HERE!" (I later made it a rule to incorporate the word "Dragon" or "Master" into each title).
''Things didn't truly come together for him until I made the decision to cast Martin Billany (LittleKuriboh) to perform his voice, which believe it or not, he was NOT my first thought. Funnily enough, Blake Swift and Casey Mongillo (who later went on to voice Alpha and Gamecrazed, respectively) were amongst my earlier ideas for casting Nylocke, but once Martin's mish-mash of all his well-known character voices came together for Nylocke's voice, it almost seemed insane that I DIDN'T think of him first. I'll brag a little and say was a smart choice, because every recording session with Martin is an absolute joy when he's performing Nylocke. In the four episodes that have been completed as of this point, Nylocke's appeared in each one of them to some capacity for good reason.
''An old teacher of ours in High School often joked that Colin had attained enlightenment because of how calm he always was. In a way, I think Nylocke has attained the TOME-equivalent to enlightenment, in that he's a completely infallible, unbridled force of good. His player has found this balance of taking the game just seriously enough to be exceptional at it, even going so far as to try and stop the hackers that impede on his world, yet he still views the entire thing as a big game...NAY, an epic adventure, never breaking character so that he can live this incredible "story" to its fullest...at least in his own mind. I'm glad people love this character even more now; it's no wonder he ranked as the #1 fan favorite!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Nylocke-307962407</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''He's loud, he's passionate, he's internet-famous! "NNNYLOCKE, MASTER OF MANY NICKNAMES" is comedically dramatic role-player who considers TOME to be his birthplace. In reality, he's just being a regular ol' chap looking to decompress. While under the guise of this "ye olde" TOME character, the heart of a mighty dragon beats beneath his armor! His boisterous antics can come off as self-aggrandizing, but he lives to fight for his comrades in arms. Like Flamegirl, he also has a bone to pick with the "foul hackers"! He battles with an icy sword and freezing magic.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Nylocke-S2-478706939</ref>
===Season 1===
Nylocke first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode]], announcing his entrance to [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Flamegirl]] who have been waiting for him. After [[Alpha]] and [[Kirbopher]] show up at the scene, Nylocke states that he will be heading off to combat the hackers again, and wants to see who will join him. Kirbopher declines, as per usual, and Alpha says he will think about it since there are a few hours before the fighters are going to meet up. After a final warning to Alpha not to be tempted by Flamegirl's "womanly wiles," Nylocke sets off to round up the remaining players who are going to fight. Upon arrival, the players are ambushed by [[Rockoon]] and [[Doubling]] who destroy everyone except Gamecrazed and Nye. Just as they rush in to start fighting, Alpha and Flamegirl arrive, surrounding the hackers. Alpha uses the Forbidden Power to injure the hackers and defeat them. Nylocke lauds Alpha for his brave fighting spirit.
In [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]], Nylocke sneaks up on Kirbopher, who has been tailing Gamecrazed through ;Lavendera. Nylocke admits that he, too, is very curious about Gamecrazed and will follow him as well. Upon reaching the Mansion, Nylocke shows some hesitation upon entering it but follows Kirbopher who rushes in first. The two eventually lose Gamecrazed within the Mansion's walls but stumble upon [[Asterob]], who demands that they leave, as the Mansion is not supposed to be seen by the public yet. In the middle of their conversation, [[Splat]] appears and traps Kirbopher and Nylocke in bubbles of goo and sends them up to the ceiling. Nylocke remains in this position throughout the subsequent quarrel between Splat and Gamecrazed, showing some perverted interest in the way the two fighters wrap around each other. Splat is eventually defeated, and Asterob gives the [[Drain Edge]] to Gamecrazed before pleading for the three to leave. Upon exiting, Nye and Kirb admit that following Gamecrazed to know more about him was probably the wrong idea, but Gamecrazed forgives them both and apologizes for not being more open with them.
Nylocke appears again in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]], viewing Alpha and [[Granda]]'s fight together. He admires Granda's enthusiasm but encourages her to go out and train more, much to her tantrum-filled chagrin. Alpha then receives a message from Flamegirl, asking him and Nye to meet her in ;Mechcity. The two agree and head off to meet her. On the way, Alpha tries to ask Nylocke for some relationship advice, but Nylocke remains his stalwart, Dragon Knight self. Upon arriving, Nylocke notices an explosion as [[Demonking]] begins attacking the city and immediately heads off to defend against him. He teams up with [[Whyti]], and together they use their ice powers to try and defeat him. Soon enough, Demonking asks them to stop fighting and admits that he just needs the money to go back to school. Nylocke admonishes him for using such destructive ways to get another chance at higher learning and offers him a chance to change his ways and become an upstanding player of TOME. Demonking reluctantly accepts and the two become friends. They then arrive at an alleyway just in time to see Alpha and Flamegirl almost having a moment, which they awkwardly interrupt.
Nylocke and company appear in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], preparing to head off on the group quest that they have accepted. Nylocke shows delight at seeing Gamecrazed join them, and recounts how impressed he was at seeing Flamegirl roleplay for the first time. After the details of the quest are recounted to the group, Nylocke and Flamegirl agree to go off in search of the "trial by fire" mentioned by the quest-giver. They arrive at a tree surrounded by five campfires, each representing one of the elements needed to defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol|Shadow Guard Beast]]. Before Nylocke can start to figure out the puzzle, he is tackled by Granda, still sore about her earlier battles. She beats Nylocke mercilessly and stalks off, all while Flamegirl solves the puzzle without so much as a glance at Nylocke's predicament.
Nylocke horrendously violated dragon with split ends, joins Flamegirl, and the two head back to the meeting spot, the idol's torso in hand. Once the others return, the group finds a convenient spot to wait for the moonlight to strike the idol. During this time, the group discusses having a group get-together. It is here where Flamegirl reveals that Nylocke is from England, mentioning that he once logged on drunk and accidentally mentioned his hometown of Knutsford, and Nylocke's comments hint that he may have been recovering from some sort of break-up. However, he declines to join them as he "cannot travel across the virtual plains to Californialand." The idol suddenly activates, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the beast, knocking Alpha out of the arena. The other four desperately try to defeat the boss, with no success until Alpha breaks into the battlegrid using the Forbidden Power. He reunites the beast with a piece of its ear, rendering it vulnerable. The group then uses their combined elemental powers to finish it off. Rockoon flees in the aftermath, and Nylocke celebrates the group's victory with a heartfelt embrace.
===Season 2===
==Abilities==
*'''Cold Steel: '''The user slashes their weapon to send out waves of sharp ice.
*'''Stalagmite Storm: '''The user summons a line of giant stalagmites that rise up from the ground and pierce the opponent's defenses.
*'''White Wind: '''A blizzard attack that pushes back the enemy and freezes them in solid ice when covering them for a certain amount of time.
*'''[[Drain Edge]]:''' An item attached to Nylocke's sword, capable of absorbing enemy attack to be later unleashed in a form of attack. It can be discharged partially for a minor shockwave or can be discharged fully to release a powerful beam. The capacity of the Drain Edge is considerably massive, as seen in [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], where the Drain Edge is capable of absorbing [[Zetto]]'s overcharged Breaker Beam; and in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], where the Drain Edge is shown to be capable of absorbing the entirety of the [[Forbidden Power]]. As of Episode 10, Nylocke tossed his Drain Edge away in hopes of disposing of the Forbidden Power and thus does not possess this item anymore.
==Trivia==
* Unlike the rest of the main cast, Nylocke's real name was never revealed.
* Nylocke's sword is called "Hoarfrost."<ref>https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=987879094605528&set=a.987878677938903</ref>
*Nylocke's ID number is 001-111-111.
**In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], his player number is incorrectly written as "111,111,111th player." His actual ID number was referenced many times in later episodes to correct this mistake.
*In an online poll hosted by Chris Niosi, Nylocke was voted as the character most liked by fans of the show.
*Nylocke was the final owner of the [[Drain Edge]], gaining it from Gamecrazed in Episode 6 before throwing it away at the end of Episode 10.
*Nylocke is likely one of the strongest players in TOME, as he only lost the Gemini Tournament by forfeiting to his [[Zetto|defeated opponent]].
*Nylocke is left-handed.
*Nylocke is tied with Kirbopher for most episode appearances, at 14 out of 15.
**Nylocke also appears in the most shorts, at 4 out of 7. In addition, two shorts, [[Nylocke's Day Off]] and [[The Legend of Nylocke]], are focused almost exclusively on him.
*The ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'' version of Nylocke, named Nailock, was voiced by his real-life inspiration, Colin "NailockGameSlave" Zabielski. He cameoed as the voice of Nylocke in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Nylocke's name comes from a corruption of his original voice actor's name. "Colin," spelled backwards, is "Niloc."
*According to Chris Niosi, the "Muscular Beaver" persona of Daggett Beaver from the Nickelodeon series, ''"The Angry Beavers''", was an influence on Nylocke's web series iteration, even using the characters' known battle cry "WHOOSH!"<ref>https://twitter.com/Kirbopher/status/595081216971317248</ref>

'''Nylocke''', sometimes called "'''Nye'''", is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], a [[Swordsman]] with the power of ice. He is notable as a skilled fighter but also as a role player, who acts as the character his model pictures and almost never breaks this facade, regardless of the current situation. On very few occasions - usually, when he is shaken or feels the need, to be honest with someone - his true personality has broken through. His character model was created by [[Rubirules]] as a prize to the 1,111,111th player to dissimulate the code for the head of the [[Dragon Bug]].
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Nylocke is a role-player, a player who likes to pretend and act like the character that they play as. He has the habit of giving himself special titles; he will jump into the air and shout "Nylocke!" followed by a title relevant to the situation that generally begins with "Master of..." or "Dragon of...". He is good natured, extremely extroverted and very friendly towards any player he meets, going so far as to help complete strangers, such as [[Elescope]] and [[Hyprelynx]]. He is an old friend of [[Gamecrazed]], who was possibly the first user Nylocke met in TOME, and serves as a kind of older brother to [[Flamegirl]]. He tends to call male players "Sir (username)" and female players "Lady (username)," but notably, Nylocke frequently refers to [[Kirbopher]] as "squire" instead. He also frequently pronounces Kirbopher's name incorrectly, though he never means to annoy and eventually comes to correct himself later.
When he is faced with a battle, Nylocke usually acts focused and eager to test his abilities with sportsmanship, and views his opponents as fellow colleagues to have fun with, rather then competitors. When it comes to hackers, however, he displays a strong sense of furious justice, often referring to them as "vile" or "criminals."
In [[Dragon Drama]], it is also revealed that his real life is rough and being in character on TOME is one of the only times he really enjoys himself, which is why he rarely breaks character and prefers to block out anything that doesn't correspond to his idea of fun. This is the first of only a few times in the show that Nylocke breaks character, symbolized by black, reptilian pupils appearing in his eyes.
It is implied that Nylocke has attracted quite a following within the game's community itself due to his over-the-top performance, to the point that several players have deep ties to him. These include [[Serpentine]], a roleplayer who considers himself Nylocke's eternal rival after initially being rejected by him, and [[Demonking]], who was dissuaded from his job as a hacker through Nylocke's persuasion before eventually becoming a roleplayer himself. [[Whyti]] and Hyprelynx seem to admire Nylocke as well, imitating his famous "WHOOSH!" when dashing into a situation.
== Biography ==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''So, with this being a very popular character and the main source of comedy relief, I wanted to give special attention to the newly-christened "Nylocke". From the very first sketches I drew of his redesign, I had already come up with his new personality, based on that now-infamous pose of him shouting in the air "NYLOCKE! INSERT CLEVER MONIKER HERE!" (I later made it a rule to incorporate the word "Dragon" or "Master" into each title).
''Things didn't truly come together for him until I made the decision to cast Martin Billany (LittleKuriboh) to perform his voice, which believe it or not, he was NOT my first thought. Funnily enough, Blake Swift and Casey Mongillo (who later went on to voice Alpha and Gamecrazed, respectively) were amongst my earlier ideas for casting Nylocke, but once Martin's mish-mash of all his well-known character voices came together for Nylocke's voice, it almost seemed insane that I DIDN'T think of him first. I'll brag a little and say was a smart choice, because every recording session with Martin is an absolute joy when he's performing Nylocke. In the four episodes that have been completed as of this point, Nylocke's appeared in each one of them to some capacity for good reason.
''An old teacher of ours in High School often joked that Colin had attained enlightenment because of how calm he always was. In a way, I think Nylocke has attained the TOME-equivalent to enlightenment, in that he's a completely infallible, unbridled force of good. His player has found this balance of taking the game just seriously enough to be exceptional at it, even going so far as to try and stop the hackers that impede on his world, yet he still views the entire thing as a big game...NAY, an epic adventure, never breaking character so that he can live this incredible "story" to its fullest...at least in his own mind. I'm glad people love this character even more now; it's no wonder he ranked as the #1 fan favorite!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Nylocke-307962407</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''He's loud, he's passionate, he's internet-famous! "NNNYLOCKE, MASTER OF MANY NICKNAMES" is comedically dramatic role-player who considers TOME to be his birthplace. In reality, he's just being a regular ol' chap looking to decompress. While under the guise of this "ye olde" TOME character, the heart of a mighty dragon beats beneath his armor! His boisterous antics can come off as self-aggrandizing, but he lives to fight for his comrades in arms. Like Flamegirl, he also has a bone to pick with the "foul hackers"! He battles with an icy sword and freezing magic.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Nylocke-S2-478706939</ref>
===Season 1===
Nylocke first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode]], announcing his entrance to [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Flamegirl]] who have been waiting for him. After [[Alpha]] and [[Kirbopher]] show up at the scene, Nylocke states that he will be heading off to combat the hackers again, and wants to see who will join him. Kirbopher declines, as per usual, and Alpha says he will think about it since there are a few hours before the fighters are going to meet up. After a final warning to Alpha not to be tempted by Flamegirl's "womanly wiles," Nylocke sets off to round up the remaining players who are going to fight. Upon arrival, the players are ambushed by [[Rockoon]] and [[Doubling]] who destroy everyone except Gamecrazed and Nye. Just as they rush in to start fighting, Alpha and Flamegirl arrive, surrounding the hackers. Alpha uses the Forbidden Power to injure the hackers and defeat them. Nylocke lauds Alpha for his brave fighting spirit.
In [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]], Nylocke sneaks up on Kirbopher, who has been tailing Gamecrazed through ;Lavendera. Nylocke admits that he, too, is very curious about Gamecrazed and will follow him as well. Upon reaching the Mansion, Nylocke shows some hesitation upon entering it but follows Kirbopher who rushes in first. The two eventually lose Gamecrazed within the Mansion's walls but stumble upon [[Asterob]], who demands that they leave, as the Mansion is not supposed to be seen by the public yet. In the middle of their conversation, [[Splat]] appears and traps Kirbopher and Nylocke in bubbles of goo and sends them up to the ceiling. Nylocke remains in this position throughout the subsequent quarrel between Splat and Gamecrazed, showing some perverted interest in the way the two fighters wrap around each other. Splat is eventually defeated, and Asterob gives the [[Drain Edge]] to Gamecrazed before pleading for the three to leave. Upon exiting, Nye and Kirb admit that following Gamecrazed to know more about him was probably the wrong idea, but Gamecrazed forgives them both and apologizes for not being more open with them.
Nylocke appears again in [[Highest Form of Flattery|Episode 3]], viewing Alpha and [[Granda]]'s fight together. He admires Granda's enthusiasm but encourages her to go out and train more, much to her tantrum-filled chagrin. Alpha then receives a message from Flamegirl, asking him and Nye to meet her in ;Mechcity. The two agree and head off to meet her. On the way, Alpha tries to ask Nylocke for some relationship advice, but Nylocke remains his stalwart, Dragon Knight self. Upon arriving, Nylocke notices an explosion as [[Demonking]] begins attacking the city and immediately heads off to defend against him. He teams up with [[Whyti]], and together they use their ice powers to try and defeat him. Soon enough, Demonking asks them to stop fighting and admits that he just needs the money to go back to school. Nylocke admonishes him for using such destructive ways to get another chance at higher learning and offers him a chance to change his ways and become an upstanding player of TOME. Demonking reluctantly accepts and the two become friends. They then arrive at an alleyway just in time to see Alpha and Flamegirl almost having a moment, which they awkwardly interrupt.
Nylocke and company appear in [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], preparing to head off on the group quest that they have accepted. Nylocke shows delight at seeing Gamecrazed join them, and recounts how impressed he was at seeing Flamegirl roleplay for the first time. After the details of the quest are recounted to the group, Nylocke and Flamegirl agree to go off in search of the "trial by fire" mentioned by the quest-giver. They arrive at a tree surrounded by five campfires, each representing one of the elements needed to defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol|Shadow Guard Beast]]. Before Nylocke can start to figure out the puzzle, he is tackled by Granda, still sore about her earlier battles. She beats Nylocke mercilessly and stalks off, all while Flamegirl solves the puzzle without so much as a glance at Nylocke's predicament.
Nylocke horrendously violated dragon with split ends, joins Flamegirl, and the two head back to the meeting spot, the idol's torso in hand. Once the others return, the group finds a convenient spot to wait for the moonlight to strike the idol. During this time, the group discusses having a group get-together. It is here where Flamegirl reveals that Nylocke is from England, mentioning that he once logged on drunk and accidentally mentioned his hometown of Knutsford, and Nylocke's comments hint that he may have been recovering from some sort of break-up. However, he declines to join them as he "cannot travel across the virtual plains to Californialand." The idol suddenly activates, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the beast, knocking Alpha out of the arena. The other four desperately try to defeat the boss, with no success until Alpha breaks into the battlegrid using the Forbidden Power. He reunites the beast with a piece of its ear, rendering it vulnerable. The group then uses their combined elemental powers to finish it off. Rockoon flees in the aftermath, and Nylocke celebrates the group's victory with a heartfelt embrace.

'''Rockoon''' is a recurring hacker in the TOME series and leader of "The Trouble Makers" in the TOME RPG adaptation, in the [[Animalistic]] class with the power of Explosives. Though he has not shown any hacking attempts since [[Fraggedquest|Episode 4]], he spends his time being a general nuisance and annoying other players. He also has become disillusioned with TOME recently, imploring other players to give up the game.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''This time around, I kept the same basic idea of these two characters' but gave them a serious upgrade in terms of comedy and flare, especially in thanks to the dynamic acting duo of Deven Mack Jr. and Eddie Bosco.
''"Rockoon" was not written at first to be a little crazy black guy, but was asked by D-Mac (who for the record, IS African American) in order to help add some dimension to the little psycho...and BOY did it. D-Mac really went over the top with him, adding so many layers to his antics that have already made the character a big favorite among the viewers.
''"[[Doubling (TOME)|Doubling]]" was written as the straight man to Rockoon's crazy...man. I imagined Rockoon as a young kid (younger than Alpha and company) who just happens to be very good with computers but really lets himself go when playing his favorite games. At the same time, his upbringing prevents him from dropping any major curse words and therefore resorts to stuff like "motherscratcher". On the opposite side of things, Doubling makes no bones about being a foul-mouthed asshat with a dry sense of wit and a hint of sniveling cowardice. The two made for a great pair of villains to start things off with and Alpha really showed 'em what for...although I have a feeling we'll be seeing them again.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Rockoon-269221060</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''A kooky little hacker who was originally hired by "[[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]]" through [[D-Buggers.org]] to search through TOME by any means necessary for the Forbidden Power...of which he feels the wrath of first hand, thanks to Alpha. After causing some mischief throughout the game on his own, Rockoon begins to lose grasp of his sense of purpose and grows to hate TOME. Although he's a troublemaker, he's not the malicious type by any means. He battles with powerful bombs that he has hacked to be able to corrupt graphics in the virtual world.
===Season 1===
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Despite being a hacker and main recurring antagonist, Rockoon tends to have a very playful, charismatic personality and is a very hyper individual. He has also been noted to become easily offended by obscene or profane language, often calling people "mother scratchers" instead of cursing. As "Rackoon" he makes exaggerated gestures as a mock of martial arts films and anime. He dislikes being referred to as a rodent, explaining that raccoons are closer related to bears instead of rats.
At the finale of Season 2, he is seen to have redeemed himself and began to open up to others, even going as far as defending [[Archy (TOME)|Archy]] being bullied by [[Odboll (TOME)|Odboll]].
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Doubling (TOME)|Doubling]]''': Along with Rockoon, Doubling was one of the first [[Hacker|hackers]] introduced in the series, and both work together to try and obtain the "ultimate power" during [[You've Gotta Virus]]. Doubling is considerably less enthusiastic about this task than Rockoon, who he finds to be quite irritating. After [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] scares off Doubling with the [[Forbidden Power]], he abandons Rockoon, only to return to him later under the guise of a new account, Skeight. Rockoon shows great irritation towards [[Skeight (TOME)|Skeight]], as he copies his traditional "Whubba?" catchphrase, going as far as to make Rockoon kick him out of the arena in the [[Gemini Tournament]]. In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Rockoon had enough of Skeight and he told him to get lost along with the fact he doesn't need anyone but himself. Finally giving up on him, Skeight said his catchphrase, "mother scratcher", as his goodbye, making Rockoon realizing that Skeight is actually Doubling as Rockoon regrets the things he said and did to him. In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], he tries to send an apologetic letter to him but instead deleted in doing so. Whether Rockoon and Doubling became friends again remains unknown.
*'''[[Archy (TOME)|Archy]]''': [wip]
===Enemies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': When Rockoon fights Alpha in [[You've Gotta Virus]], he is hurt by the Forbidden Power, which causes him to have an almost paralyzing fear of him. In [[Fraggedquest]], he nearly defeats the rest of Alpha's friends during a glitched quest, but Alpha breaks into the corrupted grid, causing Rockoon to panic and leaving him vulnerable.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': Rockoon first encounters Kirbopher after he tries to run away from Alpha and is cut in half by Kirbopher. As a result, Rockoon begins to grow resentment towards Kirbopher, mocking him in [[Fraggedquest]]. He addresses Kirb as "Marshmallow Man" and, in the Gemini Tournament, names a move "The Kirb Stomp" after his hatred towards him.
==Abilities==
*'''Bomboulder''': A sharp rock hollowed out and filled with explosives. Two can be lobbed at once. They have been hacked to be able to corrupt graphics in the virtual world.
*'''Tail Twister''': A spinning dash attack in which the user is enveloped in a raging twister.
*'''Mining''': Allows the user to burrow underground and pop out with a sneak attack.
==Trivia==
*Rockoon's voice actor, Deven Mack Jr., also wrote for the character beginning at his second appearance. A lot of Mack's personality was also implanted in his character development later on in the series and RPG.
*According to Deven Mack, a lot of Rockoon's personality and voice quips was influenced by Team Rocket (or more specifically Meowth) from the Pokémon series, Daffy Duck, Ken Ichijouji (specifically his "Digimon Emperor" persona) from the Digimon series, Chris Tucker, R-Truth and Tetsuya Watarigani from the Beyblade: Metal Fusion series.
**Daffy and Tetsuya's iconic laughs were the inspiration for Rockoon's recurring laughter.
*During Episode 4, he coughs and says, "Man I gotta stop doing this voice thing", this could mean either his known voice is an act, or his voice hurt from a voice attack he used before this quote.
**This could also allude to his voice actor, Deven Mack Jr. who has gone on record to say that he was trying to get out of freelance voice acting when Chris Niosi approached him to voice Rockoon, and that playing the character was a favor he normally wouldn't have done.
*When he appears in episode 8, he changes his username to Rackoon and his fur color has changed to red. This is a nod to his original appearance in TTA.
*Rockoon's IRL name is known to be Rodney from a private message he was about to send to Skeight/Doubling in the ending of Episode 15. In the April Fools Special, it confirms that Rockoon's full name is Rodney J. Rockwell.
*According to Deven Mack, his IRL name was influenced by fellow TOME cast member Edwyn Tiong's character "Rodney Bulge" from the web series Wonders of the Universe. Mack also co-starred with Tiong on that series.
*The fact bubbles of Episode 4 implied that Rockoon is younger than most characters in the series, as he is described as "an irritable know-it-all kid".
*According to Chris Niosi, one of Rockoon's idioms, "mother scratchers", was derived from a quote uttered by Big Bob Pataki from the Nickelodeon series, Hey Arnold!.

'''Zetto''' (born '''Zeke'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>) is a main character in the TOME series. Introduced as an arrogant fighter solely seeking strong opponents, he antagonizes [[Alpha]] and his friends, acting cold and objectifying their struggles with the Forbidden Power for his own amusement. It's eventually revealed that he was formerly Netking Number 6, and was responsible for beta testing TOME's battle system during development. After the creation of the Forbidden Power, he and [[Kizuna]] disbanded from the Netkings and went on to form [[D-Buggers.org]] per [[Rubirules]]'s suggestion. He used the hackers Kizuna hired and attacked Alpha himself in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power and eventually contain it.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], [[Kirbopher]] is revealed to be his alternate account.

====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''One of the very first ideas I came up with all the way back at the beginning of the TOME "remake" concept was having [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] and Zetto, in this version of the story, be the same player using different accounts ("multiboxing" I believe is the term for that). It was an idea that I thought was just crazy enough to work and found it to be one of the most exciting prospects of writing the story.
''Instead of a power-hungry lunatic obsessed with being good at a video game, I had instead come up with a multi-layered character placed in an unintentional antagonistic position. To [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] and our heroes, the hackers (and by extension, [[D-buggers.org|the one hiring them]]) are the enemy, causing problems and putting people in danger because of the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]]. In reality, Zetto and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]] (who took on Zetto's role as the hacker boss "[[Voltarius (TTA)|Voltarius]]") were working together to try and covertly find this virus they were familiar with and erase it, so people like Alpha wouldn't be harmed by it.
''I kept Zetto's confidence and pride, but kept him very vague and mysterious...then, when the twist was revealed that he and Kirb were in fact the same person on different accounts, you could believe it. The player behind Zetto created the Kirbopher account for the purpose of just purely enjoying TOME as a game and having fun with the new friends he made...but tragically, those same friends got wrapped up in the whole mess he was setting out to prevent. Having the full context behind Zetto's motivation at the end of the season, you can understand the struggle he goes through under the guise of Kirb; caught between wanting to make his friends happy and having to fulfill a solemn and desperate mission he set out to accomplish with Kizuna's help. Illustrating this mysterious "double life" was definitely one of the biggest driving forces behind doing the show, overall.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Zetto-423321319</ref>
=====Demon Form=====
''Using the basic idea of the original concept, I expanded upon it and tried to put some logic to it, as well concocting an interesting "science" behind the idea. Imagine if you will, "fusion" characters; those combined from two people...how would their mind work? Would it be like two consciousnesses controlling a single body, or would it be one NEW consciousness all its own?
''The virus the players know as "The Forbidden Power" is an artificial intelligence that we see "speaks" to Alpha throughout the series; whispering ideas of committing horrible acts into the boy's ear. Alpha, although a great player, starts out as being weak-willed and easily-manipulated. When combining an artificial intelligence that cares about nothing but violence with a human mind that is weak enough to be preyed upon, what do you get? The answer is, a savage.
''The "Demon forms" seen in the show are a result of that; mindless, blood-lusting killers, which when FURTHER combined with the virus' mysterious ability of harming other players through the game in real life, makes for a dangerous combination. Additionally, since the virus has been growing stronger being "hosted" in the mind of a human being and feeding off that further negativity, the subsequent appearances of these Demons gets more and more horrifying! Tons of fun to animate for me...but NOT tons of fun for Blake and I to scream our lungs out on!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Demon-Zetto-422842836</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''The first of two accounts to a single TOME player...the true identity of Kirbopher. Zetto is a powerhouse and was once ruled by a brash and arrogant attitude. After a series of incidents involving The Forbidden Power and its harm to the game's players in real life, he has since become reclusive and even a bit emotionally broken. His goal is to find and contain this threat against TOME's populace [sic], by any means necessary. He battles with spirit energy focused into weapons, as well as a mechanical arm built specifically for his mission.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Zetto-S2-478707416</ref>
===Episode 00: /FILE:ZERO===
Zetto, alongside Kizuna, was the youngest in the team of seven developers hired by publisher [[Plan.Net]] to create TOME. He was mostly a play-tester charged with helping on the game's unique battle system. It was thus his task to test the intended first boss battle of TOME, the Shadowguard Beast.
However, in creating TOME, the Netkings accidentally gave birth to a sentient virtual being known as [[SOFDTI]] who could translate emotions and thoughts, both conscious and unconscious, into data, and helped them bring the game to fruition. SOFDTI was exposed to the whole spectrum of human emotion but could not tolerate its negativity, and spawned a defect that infected the Beast, granting it the power to influence human thoughts and perception and push them to the negative. When launching himself at the beast, Zetto's arm was brutally sliced and he felt the pain of this injury.
After this, the player behind Zetto designed another avatar for himself, called Kirbopher, in order to play the game free of the stress linked to this traumatic event. However, he was soon approached by Rubirules to hunt down the virus SOFDTI has spawned, and his trauma caused him to be easily influenced into joining this quest. Although he was involved in this mission, he let Kizuna physically handle most of it throughout the beginning of the story.
=== Season 1 ===
[[File:Zetto64.png|thumb|Zetto after defeating two random players in Mechcity with a single blast.]]
Zetto is first seen in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], appearing in Mechcity meeting with two Tome users. heires up a Ki-Blast and defeats them both, and takes down Demon Alpha with ease as the latter tries hard to defeat him. Acting impressed by Alpha's power, he asks for a true challenge in the Gemini Tournament, indulging in his revenge over the entity who caused him this unforgettable pain. His meetup plan still aims, however, to secure an occasion to deal with the virus inside Alpha.
He does indeed participate in the tournament alongside Kizuna - after failing to convince Alpha to partner with Kirbopher - who accepts this as a "favor", that should not take her long to complete anyway. Though he intends for it to allow him to "decompress" after the Forbidden Power's influence over Alpha has worsened and his relationships with close friends under the alias of Kirbopher have strained, his plan to contain the Power within Asterob's shield fails, and killing Neomutant and Dustbunny isn't enough for him to calm down.
During the semifinals, Zetto is disappointed in Alpha's lack of will to fight him as hard as he desires. To encourage him to brighten up, Alpha and [[Flamegirl]] decide to forfeit the match ; however, during his final battle against [[Nylocke]] and [[Gamecrazed]], Zetto finally lashes out against the former, which elicits from him a speech much in the same spirit as Alpha's words, before he decides to forfeit that match as well. With the Gemini Tournament over and won by him, Zetto understands that his attempts to run away from his mission are fruitless, and decides to go to the point, dropping his cocky persona.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto messages and confronts Alpha in an attempt to extract the Forbidden Power from him and get rid of it once and for all. When Alpha meets him, he briefs him about the fact that the virus may not be erased, but merely contained ; his poor choice of words awakens Demon Alpha once more. Grabbing Alpha by the neck, he drains the Power out of him, but fails to complete the process, and his arm gets destroyed, the Power leaking into him instead, transforming him into Demon Zetto. He fights with Alpha for a period of time, and during his last few seconds of stable mind as Zetto, he says "Kill...me..." before proceeding to knock Alpha down and finish him off.
Before he can make the final blow, Flamegirl kicks him in the back of the head,triggering the purple flame response, as Nylocke pierces him with his sword with the [[Drain Edge]] attached. The Forbidden Power, weakened by the antivirus and taken aback, is drained from him, causing him to collapse. After everyone has left, the Webmaster of TOME arrives and carries Zetto's body to the Heavens of Magical Expertise, in which he states that Zetto was very badly damaged. [[Kinderspirit]] points out that Zetto's eyes are grayed out, and that he must have unhooked himself from the game without logging out first. [[Webmaster]] comments "I wonder why...?" before the camera switches to Kirbopher looking at the crater Zetto's body was in, a gloomy expression on his face
===Season 2===
[[File:Zetto_season_2.png|thumb|Zetto's appearance in season 2.]]
Zetto reappears briefly in [[Year One|Episode 11]], conversing with [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]]. It is unknown what happened after he was taken to HOME, but sometime before the episode he updated his character model, giving him purple clothing, a metal breastplate, and a much larger mechanical arm on his left hand, replacing the one that was destroyed during [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. His personality has changed radically, as, even though he still tells Kizuna that cares just as much about playing the game as protecting the people in it, he acts noticeably less cocky and self-assured, and comes across as more secluded and focused than before.
In [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], a little while after Rubirules mockingly impersonates him, in part to offend Kirbopher, in front of the party of Challenge of the Netkings fighters, Zetto's identity as a Netking and battle system tester is revealed. Knowing that he was part of the Netkings, Alpha understand that the Netkings are undoubtedly aware the Forbidden Power exists, and angrily demands them explanations, only for Kajet's awakening to interrupt their meetup. At the end of the episode and after Alpha's gang is logged out forcefully by [[Webmaster]], Zetto appears in the Moon, informing Kizuna that the Netkings will be making their move on the Forbidden Power the next day. When he asks Kizuna what the plan is, she states that they are "officially out of time", and that she needs to make some "very important calls", which are to Rubirules, Neomutant and Oddball, to orchestrate a plan for the Dragon Bug pieces to come to the Moon for immediate construction.
In [[Episode 0]], Zetto's past with Kajet is explored. He and Kizuna are seen playing around with each other, Zetto lacking his signature gun arm. [[SOFDTI]] mentions that they have strong feelings for each other, which causes Kizuna to have an outburst which Zetto tries to calm her down from. This is SOFDTI's first exposure to strong negative feelings. Later, he is seen fighting against Kajet, however due to the Forbidden Power, his arm gets cut off and he is prematurely logged out due to the pain.
During [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto doubts the necessity of his and Kizuna's actions, while Kizuna affirms this is their only chance. When Nylocke is delivered to him, he turns him into the Dragon Bug head, saying that they just need to activate the power source. He also turns Flamegirl into the power source, before revealing himself to Alpha. He explains that their objective is to erase the Forbidden Power permanently and tells him he should have stayed out of this while he had the chance - as his coming to the moon was unnecessary, which he tried to warn him about while on Kirbopher's account - and that they can't be stopped now. However, when Flamegirl is turned into the power source, she contorts and groans, unlike Nylocke's instantaneous shift, which makes Zetto understand things are not going as planned. He tries to shut Dragon Bug down, but it fails. He shoots at it with his arm cannon, but the dragon defeats him and he is logged out on this account.
In Episode 15, after his attempt to combat Kajet with Kirbopher leaves the latter permanently damaged, he logs back into TOME using his administration privileges, coincidentally right next to where Alpha fell from the moon, reflecting on the time Rubirules recruited him. A moment later, Alpha stares at him, and realizes in a flash of lucidity who he really is. Lashing out at him, he angrily asks him why he "did it", to which Zetto tears up and tries to make Alpha understand he "just wanted to help everybody" and that "he let it get out of hand". Immediately after, the Dragon Bug and Kajet kill each other. Zetto, Kizuna and Alpha get closer to the battlefield only to see that the two are nothing but meaningless data anymore. He tries and fails to justify himself, only to see Rubirules fall from the sky and encase the Forbidden Power and Purple Flame.
As Rubirules finally lets everyone in on his actual intent - use the Power to control SOFDTI, rather than erase it - Zetto tries to stop him by saying that Flamegirl is not responding at all, and could possibly have brain damage. Rubirules, as part of Neomutant's plan, does not believe him; therefore, Zetto chooses to jump down and follow him to redeem his bad deeds, though he openly confesses to Kizuna, who follows him alongside Alpha, that he doesn't have a plan.
His words fail to convince Rubirules once more. After Kizuna is knocked out by him, he attempts to use his improved mechanical arm to absorb the Forbidden Power. Raw as it is in Rubirules's crystal, it only causes him immense pain, and he has to reluctantly agree to Alpha coming into contact with Kajet's spirit for the last time
Alpha eventually defeats Rubirules, but as SOFDTI contemplates how his love allowed for the Forbidden Power to be erased after all, KIzuna points her gun at her, angrily blaming her for everything that has happened to her and Zetto. She openly confesses her love for him as she says SOFDTI "could have taken him away" from her. Zetto, fully aware that she is wrong, decides to kick her out of the game by shooting her.
In the aftermath of Rubirules' defeat, Zetto adresses Webmaster for a wish he and his friends had for winning the Challenge of the Netkings. After burying Kirbopher in the forest of ;Lavendera, Zetto's player meets up with Alpha's, Nylocke's, and Flamegirl's, in Burbank, California, the latter's hometown.
==Personality==
Because of his involvement in the game's development as the combat tester, Zetto takes the fighting aspect of TOME very seriously, challenging practically every player he meets to a battle. His character was made with the inner workings of the battle system in mind, and utilizes his powers to a greater extent than most other players. He is, understandably, very confident in his combat capabilities because of this, and defeats nearly all of his opponents with ease. His obsession with battle can become one of the more negative aspects of his personality, though, and he can struggle to find any enjoyment in the game unless he is winning or his competition is serious. In Episode 12, Nylocke realizes that Zetto's outburst at the Gemini Tournament in [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]] was probably caused by Nylocke's light-hearted attitude towards a world that Zetto spent months creating.
In Season 2, his personality is noticeably different, with his cool, confident facade seemingly slipping following the events of Episode 10. He is even more determined than before. However, his fragility is greater. With the crisis ramping up in intensity, he grows more and more aware of the possibility of failure, and feels very powerless in the face of danger. He seems to be on his way to resolve his trauma with the defeat of Kajet.
Zetto is shown to have good intentions overall; from the start, he regrets hiring Rockoon and Doubling after they destroy ;Lavendera, and unlike Rubirules, he has no wish to utilize the Forbidden Power for anything, simply wanting to destroy it. These good intentions are hard to piece together, though, because Zetto's player takes a theatrical liking to his power and happily plays the part of a fearsome anti-hero for our protagonists. While focused on his mission, he takes every opportunity to enjoy himself in ways that, at best, leave him angry and unsatisfied, and at worst, slow down his progress. Furthermore, his trauma regarding the Forbidden Power seems to get in the way of his judgement; while he wants to prevent anyone else from being hurt by the virus, he himself puts his friends in harm's way in order to destroy it. When Alpha questions why he did so in Episode 15, he can't really give a satisfactory answer, stating that he "just wanted to help everyone" and repeatedly apologizing. It's clear that he cares deeply for other people, but his emotions get the best of him. They are deeply conflicted, and as Plan Z reveals, he feels guilty and cowardly for not revealing his identity to his friends, but he still decides to keep his personas separate anyways, likely because he believes it will aid his mission in the end.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher was an alternate account of Zetto, designed first and foremost to distance himself from the horror of the Forbidden Power. As things turned out, however, Kirbopher ended up meeting Alpha, whose body became the host of the virus, and so it was through this account that Zetto had to watch its evolution unfold, slowly destroying any opportunity he had to enjoy the game for what it was. There are several occasions where Zetto logs in both as Kirbopher and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposedly let Kirbopher takes his Breaker Beam in order to continue through the gemini tournament; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually logs himself as Zetto to confront Alpha and his [[Forbidden Power]], after a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control. Zetto continues to use Kirbopher afterwards until he attempts to take down Kajet with him in Episode 14, which results in irreversible corruption of the model.
*'''[[Kizuna|Kizuna]]''': Zetto and Kizuna are long-time acquaintances and reluctant lovers. Their relationship has been described by Niosi as "all kinds of messed up", as the two of them are people who deal with their feelings very poorly. They are the driving force of [[D-Buggers.org]] and carry out the construction of the [[Dragon Bug]], scheduling Hacker missions to further it. At the end of the first season, they battle alongside each other in the Gemini Tournament, defeating all of their competitors with little difficulty while acting rather sarcastically towards each other, eventually reaching the finals, where they face off against Nylocke and Gamecrazed. They are victorious in this battle, only because Nylocke forfeits. It is strongly hinted at in [[Episode 0]] that Zetto did, or still does, have feelings for her. However, when Kizuna breaks down in front of [[SOFDTI]] in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] and attempts to destroy her out or sheer rage for the tragedies they have experienced, Zetto silently shoots her to force her out of the game, to which she tears up, having finally expressed open love for him to the AI. Kizuna does not appear in the real-life meetup of Zetto and his friends, and the future of their bond is unknown.
===Enemies===
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha vs Demon Zetto.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Zetto first battles Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], when the latter is terrorizing [[Mechcity]] under the influence of the Forbidden Power. Despite defeating Alpha, Zetto acts impressed by his abilities in combat, challenging him to fight in the Gemini Tournament, despite knowing full well his power is a threat to eliminate. When they finally face each other in the tournament, Zetto and Kizuna win the battle by default when Alpha and Flamegirl forfeit, simply in light of how little fun Zetto has. In The Warring Demons, Zetto confronts Alpha about the Forbidden Power and when Alpha is possessed by it once again, Zetto vows to get rid of it once and for all. He continues to hide his identity to Alpha until he realizes it himself in Episode 15. Due to the urgency of the situation, Zetto chooses to redeem himself by teaming up with Alpha and Kizuna to take down Rubirules.
==Abilities==
*'''Ki Generator''': Infinite spirit energy that the player can charge and release in explosive bursts.
*'''Ki Blade''': A blade made of energy that can morph and extend to different shapes by the user's will.
*'''Shiftarm''': A transforming arm that can shift between a cannon, a chain-link and a machine gun.
**'''The Anti-Virus Prototype''': The earlier version of Flamegirl's Anti-Virus installed in Zetto's Shiftarm, which also acts as a counter-measure against the [[Forbidden Power]]. Alhough it cannot defeat the virus, it can protect Zetto from its attacks.
*'''Breaker Beam''': A powerful attack that must be charged for a great amount of time, but releases a beam that covers the entire length of the battlefield. He can unleash an intentionally overcharged beam, but it will short-circuit his mechanical arm for a period of time.
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Zetto/Gallery]]</big>''
==Trivia==
*Zetto is featured on the cover of the Smooth Jazz version of "[[Battle On!]]", which [[Kirbopher]]'s voice actor sings, possibly an allusion to their sharing identities.
*Before the reveal in [[Episode 0]] about Zetto's history with the [[Forbidden Power]], there were various clues left throughout the ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]'' series.
**Before [[Alpha]] transforms in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto says, "It's taken longer than I wanted...but I finally have the means to extract it...and contain it. ''This time...for good!''" implying that he's tried to contain it before and failed.
** He also says, "Do you hear me in there, you monster?! ''I haven't forgotten... and I'll make sure you never hurt ANYONE ELSE!''" implying the Forbidden Power did something to him in the past.
**[[File:QuickFlashbackZetto.png|thumb|The flashback image of Zetto during The Warring Demons.]]Moments before Zetto attempts to extract the Forbidden Power from Alpha, Zetto is seen from Alpha's point of view. The screen rapidly flickers between the current Zetto and his character model from before Kajet cut off his arm.
** The Forbidden Power says through Alpha's head, "I want him to suffer all over again".
**Episode 12 strongly hints that Zetto had a large role in developing or testing the Forbidden Power before it was hidden away.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] and [[Plan Z]], clues were dropped throughout the Gemini Tournament arc and the beginning of the episode that indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person. Reasons include:
**Both being interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher standing immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
** With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
**Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines were both "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!". This line is the one that allows Alpha to piece his identity together
**As the [[Webmaster]] stated at the end of Episode 10, players who leave the game without logging off remain in the game, with their character model's eyes turning grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after being stabbed by Nylocke, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor; this was hidden to the public by a pseudonym until Episode 10.
**In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.
**Zetto's old character design is similar to Kirbopher's 3rd character design. The version of Kirbopher that appears in ''TOME'' is the 4th character design.
*Zetto is the Japanese name for the letter Z, the last letter of the [[wikipedia:Latin alphabet|Latin alphabet]]. This contrasts with Alpha, whose name is the first letter of the [[wikipedia:Greek alphabet|Greek alphabet]], as the two characters are portrayed as relative opposites.
*Zetto's Breaker Beam attack is derived from ''[[w:c:mario:Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Super Mario RPG]]'', which heavingly influenced the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]] of the series.
*The character Lord Zett, from Chris Niosi's original series ''Super Freakin' Parody Rangers'', is based off of the design for Zetto from the TOME precursor series, ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He is also voiced by Niosi.
* Zetto's design for [[Episode 0]] is most likely a callback to his design in ''TV TOME Adventures''.
* The font that Zetto uses through the series is called "Kinglify".<ref>https://www.tumblr.com/moonlightchronicle/152251904868/whats-the-name-of-the-font-used-for-zetto-on-the</ref>
*Zetto, alongside [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]], are playable characters in the [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo Switch|Nintendo Switch]] game ''[[w:c:combat-core:Combat Core|Combat Core]]'', making them the only two ''Terrain of Magical Expertise'' characters to appear in a non-TOME based video game project. Niosi reprised his role from the original series.
*According to Chris Niosi, [[w:c:dragonball:Vegeta|Vegeta]] from the ''[[w:c:dragonball:Dragon Ball (franchise)|Dragon Ball]]'' franchise was a large influence on Zetto's character design and personality, to the point where the character was very derivative of him in the original ''TV Tome Adventures'' incarnation. Coincidentally, [[wikipedia:Eric Vale|Eric Vale]] (whom voiced Zetto in the RPG) frequently voices Vegeta's son, [[w:c:dragonball:Future Trunks|Trunks]], throughout the English version of the franchise.

''The first of two accounts to a single TOME player...the true identity of Kirbopher. Zetto is a powerhouse and was once ruled by a brash and arrogant attitude.

He battles with spirit energy focused into weapons, as well as a mechanical arm built specifically for his mission.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Zetto-S2-478707416</ref>
===Episode 00: /FILE:ZERO===
Zetto, alongside Kizuna, was the youngest in the team of seven developers hired by publisher [[Plan.Net]] to create TOME. He was mostly a play-tester charged with helping on the game's unique battle system. It was thus his task to test the intended first boss battle of TOME, the Shadowguard Beast.
However, in creating TOME, the Netkings accidentally gave birth to a sentient virtual being known as [[SOFDTI]] who could translate emotions and thoughts, both conscious and unconscious, into data, and helped them bring the game to fruition. SOFDTI was exposed to the whole spectrum of human emotion but could not tolerate its negativity, and spawned a defect that infected the Beast, granting it the power to influence human thoughts and perception and push them to the negative. When launching himself at the beast, Zetto's arm was brutally sliced and he felt the pain of this injury.
After this, the player behind Zetto designed another avatar for himself, called Kirbopher, in order to play the game free of the stress linked to this traumatic event. However, he was soon approached by Rubirules to hunt down the virus SOFDTI has spawned, and his trauma caused him to be easily influenced into joining this quest. Although he was involved in this mission, he let Kizuna physically handle most of it throughout the beginning of the story.
=== Season 1 ===
[[File:Zetto64.png|thumb|Zetto after defeating two random players in Mechcity with a single blast.]]
Zetto is first seen in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], appearing in Mechcity meeting with two Tome users. heires up a Ki-Blast and defeats them both, and takes down Demon Alpha with ease as the latter tries hard to defeat him. Acting impressed by Alpha's power, he asks for a true challenge in the Gemini Tournament, indulging in his revenge over the entity who caused him this unforgettable pain. His meetup plan still aims, however, to secure an occasion to deal with the virus inside Alpha.
He does indeed participate in the tournament alongside Kizuna - after failing to convince Alpha to partner with Kirbopher - who accepts this as a "favor", that should not take her long to complete anyway. Though he intends for it to allow him to "decompress" after the Forbidden Power's influence over Alpha has worsened and his relationships with close friends under the alias of Kirbopher have strained, his plan to contain the Power within Asterob's shield fails, and killing Neomutant and Dustbunny isn't enough for him to calm down.
During the semifinals, Zetto is disappointed in Alpha's lack of will to fight him as hard as he desires. To encourage him to brighten up, Alpha and [[Flamegirl]] decide to forfeit the match ; however, during his final battle against [[Nylocke]] and [[Gamecrazed]], Zetto finally lashes out against the former, which elicits from him a speech much in the same spirit as Alpha's words, before he decides to forfeit that match as well. With the Gemini Tournament over and won by him, Zetto understands that his attempts to run away from his mission are fruitless, and decides to go to the point, dropping his cocky persona.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto messages and confronts Alpha in an attempt to extract the Forbidden Power from him and get rid of it once and for all. When Alpha meets him, he briefs him about the fact that the virus may not be erased, but merely contained ; his poor choice of words awakens Demon Alpha once more. Grabbing Alpha by the neck, he drains the Power out of him, but fails to complete the process, and his arm gets destroyed, the Power leaking into him instead, transforming him into Demon Zetto. He fights with Alpha for a period of time, and during his last few seconds of stable mind as Zetto, he says "Kill...me..." before proceeding to knock Alpha down and finish him off.
Before he can make the final blow, Flamegirl kicks him in the back of the head,triggering the purple flame response, as Nylocke pierces him with his sword with the [[Drain Edge]] attached. The Forbidden Power, weakened by the antivirus and taken aback, is drained from him, causing him to collapse. After everyone has left, the Webmaster of TOME arrives and carries Zetto's body to the Heavens of Magical Expertise, in which he states that Zetto was very badly damaged. [[Kinderspirit]] points out that Zetto's eyes are grayed out, and that he must have unhooked himself from the game without logging out first. [[Webmaster]] comments "I wonder why...?" before the camera switches to Kirbopher looking at the crater Zetto's body was in, a gloomy expression on his face
===Season 2===
[[File:Zetto_season_2.png|thumb|Zetto's appearance in season 2.]]
Zetto reappears briefly in [[Year One|Episode 11]], conversing with [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]]. It is unknown what happened after he was taken to HOME, but sometime before the episode he updated his character model, giving him purple clothing, a metal breastplate, and a much larger mechanical arm on his left hand, replacing the one that was destroyed during [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. His personality has changed radically, as, even though he still tells Kizuna that cares just as much about playing the game as protecting the people in it, he acts noticeably less cocky and self-assured, and comes across as more secluded and focused than before.
In [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], a little while after Rubirules mockingly impersonates him, in part to offend Kirbopher, in front of the party of Challenge of the Netkings fighters, Zetto's identity as a Netking and battle system tester is revealed. Knowing that he was part of the Netkings, Alpha understand that the Netkings are undoubtedly aware the Forbidden Power exists, and angrily demands them explanations, only for Kajet's awakening to interrupt their meetup. At the end of the episode and after Alpha's gang is logged out forcefully by [[Webmaster]], Zetto appears in the Moon, informing Kizuna that the Netkings will be making their move on the Forbidden Power the next day. When he asks Kizuna what the plan is, she states that they are "officially out of time", and that she needs to make some "very important calls", which are to Rubirules, Neomutant and Oddball, to orchestrate a plan for the Dragon Bug pieces to come to the Moon for immediate construction.
In [[Episode 0]], Zetto's past with Kajet is explored. He and Kizuna are seen playing around with each other, Zetto lacking his signature gun arm. [[SOFDTI]] mentions that they have strong feelings for each other, which causes Kizuna to have an outburst which Zetto tries to calm her down from. This is SOFDTI's first exposure to strong negative feelings. Later, he is seen fighting against Kajet, however due to the Forbidden Power, his arm gets cut off and he is prematurely logged out due to the pain.
During [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto doubts the necessity of his and Kizuna's actions, while Kizuna affirms this is their only chance. When Nylocke is delivered to him, he turns him into the Dragon Bug head, saying that they just need to activate the power source. He also turns Flamegirl into the power source, before revealing himself to Alpha. He explains that their objective is to erase the Forbidden Power permanently and tells him he should have stayed out of this while he had the chance - as his coming to the moon was unnecessary, which he tried to warn him about while on Kirbopher's account - and that they can't be stopped now. However, when Flamegirl is turned into the power source, she contorts and groans, unlike Nylocke's instantaneous shift, which makes Zetto understand things are not going as planned. He tries to shut Dragon Bug down, but it fails. He shoots at it with his arm cannon, but the dragon defeats him and he is logged out on this account.
In Episode 15, after his attempt to combat Kajet with Kirbopher leaves the latter permanently damaged, he logs back into TOME using his administration privileges, coincidentally right next to where Alpha fell from the moon, reflecting on the time Rubirules recruited him. A moment later, Alpha stares at him, and realizes in a flash of lucidity who he really is. Lashing out at him, he angrily asks him why he "did it", to which Zetto tears up and tries to make Alpha understand he "just wanted to help everybody" and that "he let it get out of hand". Immediately after, the Dragon Bug and Kajet kill each other. Zetto, Kizuna and Alpha get closer to the battlefield only to see that the two are nothing but meaningless data anymore. He tries and fails to justify himself, only to see Rubirules fall from the sky and encase the Forbidden Power and Purple Flame.
As Rubirules finally lets everyone in on his actual intent - use the Power to control SOFDTI, rather than erase it - Zetto tries to stop him by saying that Flamegirl is not responding at all, and could possibly have brain damage. Rubirules, as part of Neomutant's plan, does not believe him; therefore, Zetto chooses to jump down and follow him to redeem his bad deeds, though he openly confesses to Kizuna, who follows him alongside Alpha, that he doesn't have a plan.
His words fail to convince Rubirules once more. After Kizuna is knocked out by him, he attempts to use his improved mechanical arm to absorb the Forbidden Power. Raw as it is in Rubirules's crystal, it only causes him immense pain, and he has to reluctantly agree to Alpha coming into contact with Kajet's spirit for the last time
Alpha eventually defeats Rubirules, but as SOFDTI contemplates how his love allowed for the Forbidden Power to be erased after all, KIzuna points her gun at her, angrily blaming her for everything that has happened to her and Zetto. She openly confesses her love for him as she says SOFDTI "could have taken him away" from her. Zetto, fully aware that she is wrong, decides to kick her out of the game by shooting her.
In the aftermath of Rubirules' defeat, Zetto adresses Webmaster for a wish he and his friends had for winning the Challenge of the Netkings. After burying Kirbopher in the forest of ;Lavendera, Zetto's player meets up with Alpha's, Nylocke's, and Flamegirl's, in Burbank, California, the latter's hometown.
==Personality==
Because of his involvement in the game's development as the combat tester, Zetto takes the fighting aspect of TOME very seriously, challenging practically every player he meets to a battle. His character was made with the inner workings of the battle system in mind, and utilizes his powers to a greater extent than most other players. He is, understandably, very confident in his combat capabilities because of this, and defeats nearly all of his opponents with ease. His obsession with battle can become one of the more negative aspects of his personality, though, and he can struggle to find any enjoyment in the game unless he is winning or his competition is serious. In Episode 12, Nylocke realizes that Zetto's outburst at the Gemini Tournament in [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]] was probably caused by Nylocke's light-hearted attitude towards a world that Zetto spent months creating.
In Season 2, his personality is noticeably different, with his cool, confident facade seemingly slipping following the events of Episode 10. He is even more determined than before. However, his fragility is greater. With the crisis ramping up in intensity, he grows more and more aware of the possibility of failure, and feels very powerless in the face of danger. He seems to be on his way to resolve his trauma with the defeat of Kajet.
Zetto is shown to have good intentions overall; from the start, he regrets hiring Rockoon and Doubling after they destroy ;Lavendera, and unlike Rubirules, he has no wish to utilize the Forbidden Power for anything, simply wanting to destroy it. These good intentions are hard to piece together, though, because Zetto's player takes a theatrical liking to his power and happily plays the part of a fearsome anti-hero for our protagonists. While focused on his mission, he takes every opportunity to enjoy himself in ways that, at best, leave him angry and unsatisfied, and at worst, slow down his progress. Furthermore, his trauma regarding the Forbidden Power seems to get in the way of his judgement; while he wants to prevent anyone else from being hurt by the virus, he himself puts his friends in harm's way in order to destroy it. When Alpha questions why he did so in Episode 15, he can't really give a satisfactory answer, stating that he "just wanted to help everyone" and repeatedly apologizing. It's clear that he cares deeply for other people, but his emotions get the best of him. They are deeply conflicted, and as Plan Z reveals, he feels guilty and cowardly for not revealing his identity to his friends, but he still decides to keep his personas separate anyways, likely because he believes it will aid his mission in the end.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher was an alternate account of Zetto, designed first and foremost to distance himself from the horror of the Forbidden Power. As things turned out, however, Kirbopher ended up meeting Alpha, whose body became the host of the virus, and so it was through this account that Zetto had to watch its evolution unfold, slowly destroying any opportunity he had to enjoy the game for what it was. There are several occasions where Zetto logs in both as Kirbopher and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposedly let Kirbopher takes his Breaker Beam in order to continue through the gemini tournament; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually logs himself as Zetto to confront Alpha and his [[Forbidden Power]], after a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control. Zetto continues to use Kirbopher afterwards until he attempts to take down Kajet with him in Episode 14, which results in irreversible corruption of the model.
*'''[[Kizuna|Kizuna]]''': Zetto and Kizuna are long-time acquaintances and reluctant lovers. Their relationship has been described by Niosi as "all kinds of messed up", as the two of them are people who deal with their feelings very poorly. They are the driving force of [[D-Buggers.org]] and carry out the construction of the [[Dragon Bug]], scheduling Hacker missions to further it. At the end of the first season, they battle alongside each other in the Gemini Tournament, defeating all of their competitors with little difficulty while acting rather sarcastically towards each other, eventually reaching the finals, where they face off against Nylocke and Gamecrazed. They are victorious in this battle, only because Nylocke forfeits. It is strongly hinted at in [[Episode 0]] that Zetto did, or still does, have feelings for her. However, when Kizuna breaks down in front of [[SOFDTI]] in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] and attempts to destroy her out or sheer rage for the tragedies they have experienced, Zetto silently shoots her to force her out of the game, to which she tears up, having finally expressed open love for him to the AI. Kizuna does not appear in the real-life meetup of Zetto and his friends, and the future of their bond is unknown.
===Enemies===
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha vs Demon Zetto.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Zetto first battles Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], when the latter is terrorizing [[Mechcity]] under the influence of the Forbidden Power. Despite defeating Alpha, Zetto acts impressed by his abilities in combat, challenging him to fight in the Gemini Tournament, despite knowing full well his power is a threat to eliminate. When they finally face each other in the tournament, Zetto and Kizuna win the battle by default when Alpha and Flamegirl forfeit, simply in light of how little fun Zetto has. In The Warring Demons, Zetto confronts Alpha about the Forbidden Power and when Alpha is possessed by it once again, Zetto vows to get rid of it once and for all. He continues to hide his identity to Alpha until he realizes it himself in Episode 15. Due to the urgency of the situation, Zetto chooses to redeem himself by teaming up with Alpha and Kizuna to take down Rubirules.
==Abilities==
*'''Ki Generator''': Infinite spirit energy that the player can charge and release in explosive bursts.
*'''Ki Blade''': A blade made of energy that can morph and extend to different shapes by the user's will.
*'''Shiftarm''': A transforming arm that can shift between a cannon, a chain-link and a machine gun.
**'''The Anti-Virus Prototype''': The earlier version of Flamegirl's Anti-Virus installed in Zetto's Shiftarm, which also acts as a counter-measure against the [[Forbidden Power]]. Alhough it cannot defeat the virus, it can protect Zetto from its attacks.
*'''Breaker Beam''': A powerful attack that must be charged for a great amount of time, but releases a beam that covers the entire length of the battlefield. He can unleash an intentionally overcharged beam, but it will short-circuit his mechanical arm for a period of time.

*''<big>[[Zetto/Gallery]]</big>''
==Trivia==
*Zetto is featured on the cover of the Smooth Jazz version of "[[Battle On!]]", which [[Kirbopher]]'s voice actor sings, possibly an allusion to their sharing identities.
*Before the reveal in [[Episode 0]] about Zetto's history with the [[Forbidden Power]], there were various clues left throughout the ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]'' series.
**Before [[Alpha]] transforms in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto says, "It's taken longer than I wanted...but I finally have the means to extract it...and contain it. ''This time...for good!''" implying that he's tried to contain it before and failed.
** He also says, "Do you hear me in there, you monster?! ''I haven't forgotten... and I'll make sure you never hurt ANYONE ELSE!''" implying the Forbidden Power did something to him in the past.
**[[File:QuickFlashbackZetto.png|thumb|The flashback image of Zetto during The Warring Demons.]]Moments before Zetto attempts to extract the Forbidden Power from Alpha, Zetto is seen from Alpha's point of view. The screen rapidly flickers between the current Zetto and his character model from before Kajet cut off his arm.
** The Forbidden Power says through Alpha's head, "I want him to suffer all over again".
**Episode 12 strongly hints that Zetto had a large role in developing or testing the Forbidden Power before it was hidden away.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] and [[Plan Z]], clues were dropped throughout the Gemini Tournament arc and the beginning of the episode that indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person. Reasons include:
**Both being interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher standing immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
** With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
**Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines were both "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!". This line is the one that allows Alpha to piece his identity together
**As the [[Webmaster]] stated at the end of Episode 10, players who leave the game without logging off remain in the game, with their character model's eyes turning grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after being stabbed by Nylocke, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor; this was hidden to the public by a pseudonym until Episode 10.
**In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.
**Zetto's old character design is similar to Kirbopher's 3rd character design. The version of Kirbopher that appears in ''TOME'' is the 4th character design.
*Zetto is the Japanese name for the letter Z, the last letter of the [[wikipedia:Latin alphabet|Latin alphabet]]. This contrasts with Alpha, whose name is the first letter of the [[wikipedia:Greek alphabet|Greek alphabet]], as the two characters are portrayed as relative opposites.
*Zetto's Breaker Beam attack is derived from ''[[w:c:mario:Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Super Mario RPG]]'', which heavingly influenced the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]] of the series.
*The character Lord Zett, from Chris Niosi's original series ''Super Freakin' Parody Rangers'', is based off of the design for Zetto from the TOME precursor series, ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He is also voiced by Niosi.
* Zetto's design for [[Episode 0]] is most likely a callback to his design in ''TV TOME Adventures''.
* The font that Zetto uses through the series is called "Kinglify".<ref>https://www.tumblr.com/moonlightchronicle/152251904868/whats-the-name-of-the-font-used-for-zetto-on-the</ref>
*Zetto, alongside [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]], are playable characters in the [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo Switch|Nintendo Switch]] game ''[[w:c:combat-core:Combat Core|Combat Core]]'', making them the only two ''Terrain of Magical Expertise'' characters to appear in a non-TOME based video game project. Niosi reprised his role from the original series.
*According to Chris Niosi, [[w:c:dragonball:Vegeta|Vegeta]] from the ''[[w:c:dragonball:Dragon Ball (franchise)|Dragon Ball]]'' franchise was a large influence on Zetto's character design and personality, to the point where the character was very derivative of him in the original ''TV Tome Adventures'' incarnation. Coincidentally, [[wikipedia:Eric Vale|Eric Vale]] (whom voiced Zetto in the RPG) frequently voices Vegeta's son, [[w:c:dragonball:Future Trunks|Trunks]], throughout the English version of the franchise.

'''Zetto''' (born '''Zeke'''<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMabGipWLMk</ref>) is a main character in the TOME series. Introduced as an arrogant fighter solely seeking strong opponents, he antagonizes [[Alpha]] and his friends, acting cold and objectifying their struggles with the Forbidden Power for his own amusement. It's eventually revealed that he was formerly Netking Number 6, and was responsible for beta testing TOME's battle system during development. After the creation of the Forbidden Power, he and [[Kizuna]] disbanded from the Netkings and went on to form [[D-Buggers.org]] per [[Rubirules]]'s suggestion. He used the hackers Kizuna hired and attacked Alpha himself in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power and eventually contain it.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], [[Kirbopher]] is revealed to be his alternate account.

====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''One of the very first ideas I came up with all the way back at the beginning of the TOME "remake" concept was having [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] and Zetto, in this version of the story, be the same player using different accounts ("multiboxing" I believe is the term for that). It was an idea that I thought was just crazy enough to work and found it to be one of the most exciting prospects of writing the story.
''Instead of a power-hungry lunatic obsessed with being good at a video game, I had instead come up with a multi-layered character placed in an unintentional antagonistic position. To [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] and our heroes, the hackers (and by extension, [[D-buggers.org|the one hiring them]]) are the enemy, causing problems and putting people in danger because of the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]]. In reality, Zetto and [[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]] (who took on Zetto's role as the hacker boss "[[Voltarius (TTA)|Voltarius]]") were working together to try and covertly find this virus they were familiar with and erase it, so people like Alpha wouldn't be harmed by it.
''I kept Zetto's confidence and pride, but kept him very vague and mysterious...then, when the twist was revealed that he and Kirb were in fact the same person on different accounts, you could believe it. The player behind Zetto created the Kirbopher account for the purpose of just purely enjoying TOME as a game and having fun with the new friends he made...but tragically, those same friends got wrapped up in the whole mess he was setting out to prevent. Having the full context behind Zetto's motivation at the end of the season, you can understand the struggle he goes through under the guise of Kirb; caught between wanting to make his friends happy and having to fulfill a solemn and desperate mission he set out to accomplish with Kizuna's help. Illustrating this mysterious "double life" was definitely one of the biggest driving forces behind doing the show, overall.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Zetto-423321319</ref>
=====Demon Form=====
''Using the basic idea of the original concept, I expanded upon it and tried to put some logic to it, as well concocting an interesting "science" behind the idea. Imagine if you will, "fusion" characters; those combined from two people...how would their mind work? Would it be like two consciousnesses controlling a single body, or would it be one NEW consciousness all its own?
''The virus the players know as "The Forbidden Power" is an artificial intelligence that we see "speaks" to Alpha throughout the series; whispering ideas of committing horrible acts into the boy's ear. Alpha, although a great player, starts out as being weak-willed and easily-manipulated. When combining an artificial intelligence that cares about nothing but violence with a human mind that is weak enough to be preyed upon, what do you get? The answer is, a savage.
''The "Demon forms" seen in the show are a result of that; mindless, blood-lusting killers, which when FURTHER combined with the virus' mysterious ability of harming other players through the game in real life, makes for a dangerous combination. Additionally, since the virus has been growing stronger being "hosted" in the mind of a human being and feeding off that further negativity, the subsequent appearances of these Demons gets more and more horrifying! Tons of fun to animate for me...but NOT tons of fun for Blake and I to scream our lungs out on!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Demon-Zetto-422842836</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''The first of two accounts to a single TOME player...the true identity of Kirbopher. Zetto is a powerhouse and was once ruled by a brash and arrogant attitude. After a series of incidents involving The Forbidden Power and its harm to the game's players in real life, he has since become reclusive and even a bit emotionally broken. His goal is to find and contain this threat against TOME's populace [sic], by any means necessary. He battles with spirit energy focused into weapons, as well as a mechanical arm built specifically for his mission.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Zetto-S2-478707416</ref>
===Episode 00: /FILE:ZERO===
Zetto, alongside Kizuna, was the youngest in the team of seven developers hired by publisher [[Plan.Net]] to create TOME. He was mostly a play-tester charged with helping on the game's unique battle system. It was thus his task to test the intended first boss battle of TOME, the Shadowguard Beast.
However, in creating TOME, the Netkings accidentally gave birth to a sentient virtual being known as [[SOFDTI]] who could translate emotions and thoughts, both conscious and unconscious, into data, and helped them bring the game to fruition. SOFDTI was exposed to the whole spectrum of human emotion but could not tolerate its negativity, and spawned a defect that infected the Beast, granting it the power to influence human thoughts and perception and push them to the negative. When launching himself at the beast, Zetto's arm was brutally sliced and he felt the pain of this injury.
After this, the player behind Zetto designed another avatar for himself, called Kirbopher, in order to play the game free of the stress linked to this traumatic event. However, he was soon approached by Rubirules to hunt down the virus SOFDTI has spawned, and his trauma caused him to be easily influenced into joining this quest. Although he was involved in this mission, he let Kizuna physically handle most of it throughout the beginning of the story.

During the semifinals, Zetto is disappointed in Alpha's lack of will to fight him as hard as he desires. To encourage him to brighten up, Alpha and [[Flamegirl]] decide to forfeit the match ; however, during his final battle against [[Nylocke]] and [[Gamecrazed]], Zetto finally lashes out against the former, which elicits from him a speech much in the same spirit as Alpha's words, before he decides to forfeit that match as well.

After everyone has left, the Webmaster of TOME arrives and carries Zetto's body to the Heavens of Magical Expertise, in which he states that Zetto was very badly damaged. [[Kinderspirit]] points out that Zetto's eyes are grayed out, and that he must have unhooked himself from the game without logging out first. [[Webmaster]] comments "I wonder why...?" before the camera switches to Kirbopher looking at the crater Zetto's body was in, a gloomy expression on his face
===Season 2===
[[File:Zetto_season_2.png|thumb|Zetto's appearance in season 2.]]
Zetto reappears briefly in [[Year One|Episode 11]], conversing with [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]]. It is unknown what happened after he was taken to HOME, but sometime before the episode he updated his character model, giving him purple clothing, a metal breastplate, and a much larger mechanical arm on his left hand, replacing the one that was destroyed during [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]]. His personality has changed radically, as, even though he still tells Kizuna that cares just as much about playing the game as protecting the people in it, he acts noticeably less cocky and self-assured, and comes across as more secluded and focused than before.
In [[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]], a little while after Rubirules mockingly impersonates him, in part to offend Kirbopher, in front of the party of Challenge of the Netkings fighters, Zetto's identity as a Netking and battle system tester is revealed. Knowing that he was part of the Netkings, Alpha understand that the Netkings are undoubtedly aware the Forbidden Power exists, and angrily demands them explanations, only for Kajet's awakening to interrupt their meetup. At the end of the episode and after Alpha's gang is logged out forcefully by [[Webmaster]], Zetto appears in the Moon, informing Kizuna that the Netkings will be making their move on the Forbidden Power the next day. When he asks Kizuna what the plan is, she states that they are "officially out of time", and that she needs to make some "very important calls", which are to Rubirules, Neomutant and Oddball, to orchestrate a plan for the Dragon Bug pieces to come to the Moon for immediate construction.
In [[Episode 0]], Zetto's past with Kajet is explored. He and Kizuna are seen playing around with each other, Zetto lacking his signature gun arm. [[SOFDTI]] mentions that they have strong feelings for each other, which causes Kizuna to have an outburst which Zetto tries to calm her down from. This is SOFDTI's first exposure to strong negative feelings. Later, he is seen fighting against Kajet, however due to the Forbidden Power, his arm gets cut off and he is prematurely logged out due to the pain.
During [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto doubts the necessity of his and Kizuna's actions, while Kizuna affirms this is their only chance. When Nylocke is delivered to him, he turns him into the Dragon Bug head, saying that they just need to activate the power source. He also turns Flamegirl into the power source, before revealing himself to Alpha. He explains that their objective is to erase the Forbidden Power permanently and tells him he should have stayed out of this while he had the chance - as his coming to the moon was unnecessary, which he tried to warn him about while on Kirbopher's account - and that they can't be stopped now. However, when Flamegirl is turned into the power source, she contorts and groans, unlike Nylocke's instantaneous shift, which makes Zetto understand things are not going as planned. He tries to shut Dragon Bug down, but it fails. He shoots at it with his arm cannon, but the dragon defeats him and he is logged out on this account.
In Episode 15, after his attempt to combat Kajet with Kirbopher leaves the latter permanently damaged, he logs back into TOME using his administration privileges, coincidentally right next to where Alpha fell from the moon, reflecting on the time Rubirules recruited him. A moment later, Alpha stares at him, and realizes in a flash of lucidity who he really is. Lashing out at him, he angrily asks him why he "did it", to which Zetto tears up and tries to make Alpha understand he "just wanted to help everybody" and that "he let it get out of hand". Immediately after, the Dragon Bug and Kajet kill each other. Zetto, Kizuna and Alpha get closer to the battlefield only to see that the two are nothing but meaningless data anymore. He tries and fails to justify himself, only to see Rubirules fall from the sky and encase the Forbidden Power and Purple Flame.
As Rubirules finally lets everyone in on his actual intent - use the Power to control SOFDTI, rather than erase it - Zetto tries to stop him by saying that Flamegirl is not responding at all, and could possibly have brain damage. Rubirules, as part of Neomutant's plan, does not believe him; therefore, Zetto chooses to jump down and follow him to redeem his bad deeds, though he openly confesses to Kizuna, who follows him alongside Alpha, that he doesn't have a plan.
His words fail to convince Rubirules once more. After Kizuna is knocked out by him, he attempts to use his improved mechanical arm to absorb the Forbidden Power. Raw as it is in Rubirules's crystal, it only causes him immense pain, and he has to reluctantly agree to Alpha coming into contact with Kajet's spirit for the last time
Alpha eventually defeats Rubirules, but as SOFDTI contemplates how his love allowed for the Forbidden Power to be erased after all, KIzuna points her gun at her, angrily blaming her for everything that has happened to her and Zetto. She openly confesses her love for him as she says SOFDTI "could have taken him away" from her. Zetto, fully aware that she is wrong, decides to kick her out of the game by shooting her.
In the aftermath of Rubirules' defeat, Zetto adresses Webmaster for a wish he and his friends had for winning the Challenge of the Netkings. After burying Kirbopher in the forest of ;Lavendera, Zetto's player meets up with Alpha's, Nylocke's, and Flamegirl's, in Burbank, California, the latter's hometown.
==Personality==
Because of his involvement in the game's development as the combat tester, Zetto takes the fighting aspect of TOME very seriously, challenging practically every player he meets to a battle. His character was made with the inner workings of the battle system in mind, and utilizes his powers to a greater extent than most other players. He is, understandably, very confident in his combat capabilities because of this, and defeats nearly all of his opponents with ease. His obsession with battle can become one of the more negative aspects of his personality, though, and he can struggle to find any enjoyment in the game unless he is winning or his competition is serious. In Episode 12, Nylocke realizes that Zetto's outburst at the Gemini Tournament in [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]] was probably caused by Nylocke's light-hearted attitude towards a world that Zetto spent months creating.
In Season 2, his personality is noticeably different, with his cool, confident facade seemingly slipping following the events of Episode 10. He is even more determined than before. However, his fragility is greater. With the crisis ramping up in intensity, he grows more and more aware of the possibility of failure, and feels very powerless in the face of danger. He seems to be on his way to resolve his trauma with the defeat of Kajet.
Zetto is shown to have good intentions overall; from the start, he regrets hiring Rockoon and Doubling after they destroy ;Lavendera, and unlike Rubirules, he has no wish to utilize the Forbidden Power for anything, simply wanting to destroy it. These good intentions are hard to piece together, though, because Zetto's player takes a theatrical liking to his power and happily plays the part of a fearsome anti-hero for our protagonists. While focused on his mission, he takes every opportunity to enjoy himself in ways that, at best, leave him angry and unsatisfied, and at worst, slow down his progress. Furthermore, his trauma regarding the Forbidden Power seems to get in the way of his judgement; while he wants to prevent anyone else from being hurt by the virus, he himself puts his friends in harm's way in order to destroy it. When Alpha questions why he did so in Episode 15, he can't really give a satisfactory answer, stating that he "just wanted to help everyone" and repeatedly apologizing. It's clear that he cares deeply for other people, but his emotions get the best of him. They are deeply conflicted, and as Plan Z reveals, he feels guilty and cowardly for not revealing his identity to his friends, but he still decides to keep his personas separate anyways, likely because he believes it will aid his mission in the end.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher was an alternate account of Zetto, designed first and foremost to distance himself from the horror of the Forbidden Power. As things turned out, however, Kirbopher ended up meeting Alpha, whose body became the host of the virus, and so it was through this account that Zetto had to watch its evolution unfold, slowly destroying any opportunity he had to enjoy the game for what it was. There are several occasions where Zetto logs in both as Kirbopher and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposedly let Kirbopher takes his Breaker Beam in order to continue through the gemini tournament; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually logs himself as Zetto to confront Alpha and his [[Forbidden Power]], after a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control. Zetto continues to use Kirbopher afterwards until he attempts to take down Kajet with him in Episode 14, which results in irreversible corruption of the model.
*'''[[Kizuna|Kizuna]]''': Zetto and Kizuna are long-time acquaintances and reluctant lovers. Their relationship has been described by Niosi as "all kinds of messed up", as the two of them are people who deal with their feelings very poorly. They are the driving force of [[D-Buggers.org]] and carry out the construction of the [[Dragon Bug]], scheduling Hacker missions to further it. At the end of the first season, they battle alongside each other in the Gemini Tournament, defeating all of their competitors with little difficulty while acting rather sarcastically towards each other, eventually reaching the finals, where they face off against Nylocke and Gamecrazed. They are victorious in this battle, only because Nylocke forfeits. It is strongly hinted at in [[Episode 0]] that Zetto did, or still does, have feelings for her. However, when Kizuna breaks down in front of [[SOFDTI]] in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.|Episode 15]] and attempts to destroy her out or sheer rage for the tragedies they have experienced, Zetto silently shoots her to force her out of the game, to which she tears up, having finally expressed open love for him to the AI. Kizuna does not appear in the real-life meetup of Zetto and his friends, and the future of their bond is unknown.
===Enemies===
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha vs Demon Zetto.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Zetto first battles Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast|Episode 5]], when the latter is terrorizing [[Mechcity]] under the influence of the Forbidden Power. Despite defeating Alpha, Zetto acts impressed by his abilities in combat, challenging him to fight in the Gemini Tournament, despite knowing full well his power is a threat to eliminate. When they finally face each other in the tournament, Zetto and Kizuna win the battle by default when Alpha and Flamegirl forfeit, simply in light of how little fun Zetto has. In The Warring Demons, Zetto confronts Alpha about the Forbidden Power and when Alpha is possessed by it once again, Zetto vows to get rid of it once and for all. He continues to hide his identity to Alpha until he realizes it himself in Episode 15. Due to the urgency of the situation, Zetto chooses to redeem himself by teaming up with Alpha and Kizuna to take down Rubirules.
==Abilities==
*'''Ki Generator''': Infinite spirit energy that the player can charge and release in explosive bursts.
*'''Ki Blade''': A blade made of energy that can morph and extend to different shapes by the user's will.
*'''Shiftarm''': A transforming arm that can shift between a cannon, a chain-link and a machine gun.
**'''The Anti-Virus Prototype''': The earlier version of Flamegirl's Anti-Virus installed in Zetto's Shiftarm, which also acts as a counter-measure against the [[Forbidden Power]]. Alhough it cannot defeat the virus, it can protect Zetto from its attacks.
*'''Breaker Beam''': A powerful attack that must be charged for a great amount of time, but releases a beam that covers the entire length of the battlefield. He can unleash an intentionally overcharged beam, but it will short-circuit his mechanical arm for a period of time.

*''<big>[[Zetto (TOME)/Gallery]]</big>''
==Trivia==
*Zetto is featured on the cover of the Smooth Jazz version of "[[Battle On!]]", which [[Kirbopher]]'s voice actor sings, possibly an allusion to their sharing identities.
*Before the reveal in [[Episode 0]] about Zetto's history with the [[Forbidden Power]], there were various clues left throughout the ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]'' series.
**Before [[Alpha]] transforms in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Zetto says, "It's taken longer than I wanted...but I finally have the means to extract it...and contain it. ''This time...for good!''" implying that he's tried to contain it before and failed.
** He also says, "Do you hear me in there, you monster?! ''I haven't forgotten... and I'll make sure you never hurt ANYONE ELSE!''" implying the Forbidden Power did something to him in the past.
**[[File:QuickFlashbackZetto.png|thumb|The flashback image of Zetto during The Warring Demons.]]Moments before Zetto attempts to extract the Forbidden Power from Alpha, Zetto is seen from Alpha's point of view. The screen rapidly flickers between the current Zetto and his character model from before Kajet cut off his arm.
** The Forbidden Power says through Alpha's head, "I want him to suffer all over again".
**Episode 12 strongly hints that Zetto had a large role in developing or testing the Forbidden Power before it was hidden away.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] and [[Plan Z]], clues were dropped throughout the Gemini Tournament arc and the beginning of the episode that indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person. Reasons include:
**Both being interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher standing immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
** With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
**Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines were both "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!". This line is the one that allows Alpha to piece his identity together
**As the [[Webmaster]] stated at the end of Episode 10, players who leave the game without logging off remain in the game, with their character model's eyes turning grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after being stabbed by Nylocke, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor; this was hidden to the public by a pseudonym until Episode 10.
**In [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]], during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.
**Zetto's old character design is similar to Kirbopher's 3rd character design. The version of Kirbopher that appears in ''TOME'' is the 4th character design.
*Zetto is the Japanese name for the letter Z, the last letter of the [[wikipedia:Latin alphabet|Latin alphabet]]. This contrasts with Alpha, whose name is the first letter of the [[wikipedia:Greek alphabet|Greek alphabet]], as the two characters are portrayed as relative opposites.
*Zetto's Breaker Beam attack is derived from ''[[w:c:mario:Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Super Mario RPG]]'', which heavingly influenced the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise RPG|RPG adaption]] of the series.
*The character Lord Zett, from Chris Niosi's original series ''Super Freakin' Parody Rangers'', is based off of the design for Zetto from the TOME precursor series, ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He is also voiced by Niosi.
* Zetto's design for [[Episode 0]] is most likely a callback to his design in ''TV TOME Adventures''.
* The font that Zetto uses through the series is called "Kinglify".<ref>https://www.tumblr.com/moonlightchronicle/152251904868/whats-the-name-of-the-font-used-for-zetto-on-the</ref>
*Zetto, alongside [[Kizuna/Tigerlily|Kizuna]], are playable characters in the [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo Switch|Nintendo Switch]] game ''[[w:c:combat-core:Combat Core|Combat Core]]'', making them the only two ''Terrain of Magical Expertise'' characters to appear in a non-TOME based video game project. Niosi reprised his role from the original series.
*According to Chris Niosi, [[w:c:dragonball:Vegeta|Vegeta]] from the ''[[w:c:dragonball:Dragon Ball (franchise)|Dragon Ball]]'' franchise was a large influence on Zetto's character design and personality, to the point where the character was very derivative of him in the original ''TV Tome Adventures'' incarnation. Coincidentally, [[wikipedia:Eric Vale|Eric Vale]] (whom voiced Zetto in the RPG) frequently voices Vegeta's son, [[w:c:dragonball:Future Trunks|Trunks]], throughout the English version of the franchise.

Execk (President Execk in the RPG adaption) is the fifth of the five Netkings of TOME. He first appears in [[Year One]], where he acts as the first opponent of the Challenge of the Netkings quest. He is defeated by [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]].
==Appearance==
Execk is a tall, human-like android character wearing a formal suit and tie, clashing with his wild hair and eyes. His left hand can turn into several different weapons, meaning he might be left-handed.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''Netking #5, head of battle system development and programming. Execk biggest contribution to TOME was the creation of the "Battle Grid" that encases nearly the entire virtual world's landscape. His confidence in his ability to play his own game may come off as a bit abrasive, but he seems like a nice enough guy...but perhaps he's holding back some of his skill for the sake of being polite. He battles by shifting his arm into various machines like a sledgehammer, an air conditioner, a taser and even a flamethrower!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Execk-487195787</ref>
===Season 1===
In [[/FILE:ZERO]], Execk constructs the Battlegrid and teaches [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]] about human nature, saying that combat is necessary to satisfy the human desire for violence. However, in a game, no one gets hurt.
===Season 2===
In [[Secret of the Netkings]], Execk is revealed to be in charge of TOME's battle system. He invented the battlegrid.
==Personality==
==Relationships==
===Allies===
===Enemies===
==Abilities==
*'''Power Hammer''': His arm shifts into a powerful sledgehammer. It has demonstrated to be strong enough to easily smash apart a wooden desk.
*'''Ice Gun''': His arm shifts into an air conditioner to unleash a blast of cold air capable of freezing enemies solid.
*'''Lightning Gun''': His arm shifts into a taser to unleash a shocking bolt of electricity.
*'''Flamethrower''': His arm shifts into a flamethrower to unleash a massive stream of fire. The fire has been shown to be comparable to Alpha's Zeus Rage.
==Trivia==
*Execk is voiced by Jon St. John, who also voices the famous video game characters Duke Nukem and Big the Cat (up until 2004).
**In the TOME precursor series, TvTome Adventures, Execk was voiced by Chris Niosi's father.
*Ironically, even though Execk designed the game's combat system, he serves as the weakest of the five Netkings, outpaced by the character, sound, and graphic designers.
*In the original draft of season 2, the Netkings would have been fought in reverse order than they are in the final script. This makes more sense in terms of Execk's placing and Alpha's choice of opponent, but it doesn't show off Gamecrazed's skill or have as much build-up.
*Mike Pollock's portrayal of Execk in the RPG is in reminiscent of Donald Trump, who was the President of the United States while the game was in production.

Kindarspirit is Netking Number 3 of [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]]. She is the sound designer of the game, as well as the game's system voice. Although very serious and professional while in character, she is, in reality, incredibly bubbly and excitable. Her powers revolve around the use of the weather; she can spawn clouds of lightning and cause rainstorms and tornadoes.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''Netking #3, head of the sound department and very proudly the "true identity" of TOME's system voice that greets players upon logging in and gives them tutorials on how to play. Kindy is undoubtedly the most expressive and communicative of the Netkings, having a bit of an actor's spirit within her. When something cute and cuddly is in front of her though, forget formalities...you're in squee town. She battles by changing the weather into massive hail, tornado and lightning attacks by controlling the fight's background music!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kindarspirit-487195245</ref>
===Season 1===
In the year 2020, seven computer programmers (from the company known as [[Netking Software]]) were hired by [[Plan.Net]] to create the world's first full virtual-reality online experience, of which Kindarspirit was one. Kindarspirit was chosen to be the head of the game's sound department, and therefore became both the system voice and lead composer for the game. Kindarspirit was always interested in "cute" thing, and is implied to have been inspired by games such as Pokémon and Kirby while designing the game.
During the development of the game, the Netkings discovered that they had accidentally created a fully sentient virtual being, which was far beyond the scope of their original idea. Kindarspirit was thrilled when this happened, and decided to name the new artificial intelligence "[[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]]", which became an acronym for "Self-Operating Full-Duplex Technical Intelligence". Kindarspirit first taught SOFDTI how to speak, and although SOFDTI copied her voice at first, she eventually gained a voice of her own. Even early on, Kindarspirit frequently clashed with [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]], who had a very different idea of what SOFDTI should be used for. While Kindarspirit saw SOFDTI as a daughter that needed to be raised as a child, Rubirules saw SOFDTI as a key to a technological revolution. When Rubirules suggested to the other Netkings that the government be contacted, Kindarspirit became very angry, resulting in underlying tension between them that may have contributed to Rubirules' eventual founding of [[D-Buggers.org]].
Kindarspirit was present when SOFDTI spat out the negative emotions she had been absorbing from the Netkings (which were absorbed by True Shadowguard Beast). Kindarspirit defended SOFDTI after Zetto was injured by [[Kajet]], but also got him help when he cried out in pain. Kindarspirit, along with the other Netkings, attempted to seal the Shadowguard Beast away, but only SOFDTI's antivirus code (which was powered by love and the other positive emotions SOFDTI had absorbed) was able to lock it away in a beta region, where it was believed to be gone for good.
Kindarspirit was present when [[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]] consulted [[Giga (TOME)|Agent Giga]] about a possible negotiation that the Netkings could make with the government, to protect people while still keeping SOFDTI alive. It was eventually decided that SOFDTI could be permitted to survive under the guideline that she remained a government kept secret, and the game continued development as was intended. Kindarspirit continued to act as the game's system voice, and when new players logged in, she would politely greet them and invite them into [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]] - the game that had been named after SOFDTI, as it had become a collection of the thoughts, hopes, and dreams of every player logged into the system. At some point, Kindarspirit recorded a guide to the game known as the "[[Traveler's Guide]]", to explain the game's rules to new players and help establish a safer and more fun community within the game.
Kindarspirit was present in HOME after [[The Warring Demons|the incident with Demon Zetto]] and greeted Webmaster as the system voice as an in-joke before laughing and returning to her genuine, kid-like personality. However, Kindarspirit became solemn when she saw Zetto's disconnected character mode and noted that his eyes were grayed out.
===Season 2===
Kindarspirit would later participate in the "[[Secret of the Netkings|Challenge of the Netkings]]" anniversary event (at the suggestion of either [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]] or [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]]), and upon seeing Kirbopher's character model for the first time, she squeed and had a fangirl-y reaction to how adorable it looked. Kindarspirit then jokingly "kidnapped" Kirbopher, and [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] fought her as her Netking Challenge (defeating her by predicting what weather patterns she would use based on the background music that was playing). Kindarspirit then gave Kirbopher back and remarked on how the battle was fun, and that they should play again sometime.
Kindarspirit later formally introduced herself as the game's sound designer to all five players who had taken the Challenge but was interrupted when [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] angrily questioned the Netkings about the Forbidden Power's existence. When the virus itself broke free of the [[Drain Edge]], Webmaster logged the contest winners out of HOME, and the five Netkings prepared to attempt to copy SOFDTI's code and seal the Beast away again. Kindarspirit helped evacuate all players out of TOME during this time, and although she attempted to seal the beast away with the other Netkings, she failed. Kajet broke free, sending all of the Netkings flying in the [[;Sanctuary]] region, and allowing Rubirules's master plan to continue (as the [[Dragon Bug]] had been activated as well).
When Kajet and the Dragon Bug were both destroyed in the ensuing battle, Kindarspirit, Webmaster, [[Bitshrum (TOME)|Bitshrum]], and Execk showed up to assess the damage, only to find that Rubirules had revealed himself (and SOFDTI's existence) to Alpha. When Zetto and Kizuna angrily chastised Rubirules for putting both SOFDTI and Flamegirls' lives in danger, Kindarspirit became shocked and stayed with the other Netkings when Rubirules traveled to the game's core to finish his mission. After Alpha, Zetto, and Kizuna successfully defeated him, Rubirules reappeared to the other Netkings, telling them that they should listen to him, causing Kindarspirit to become enraged. Kindarspirit watched as Rubirules was taken into police custody, and was struck with joy when SOFDTI revealed that she was all right, in a large form resembling [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]. Kindarspirit's status after this is unknown, however, it is likely that she continued to make games with Netking Software and served as the game's system voice for as long as it remained active. It is also likely she continued to act as a motherly figure to SOFDTI.
==Personality==
Kindarspirit is very childlike and carefree, nearly always wearing a smile on her face. Although she has a tendency to act excitedly and is easily distracted by cute and nerdy things, she is actually very intelligent and is an excellent computer programmer and sound designer. Kindarspirit is capable of behaving professionally when it is necessary (such as when she is acting as the game's system voice), but her true personality is hyperactive and fun-loving. Despite this, Kindarspirit is also very motherly, and is extremely protective of SOFDTI, becoming uncharacteristically angered whenever she is threatened. She is kind and caring, but will take action when the situation calls for it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
===Enemies===
==Abilities==
She battles by changing the weather into massive hail, tornado, and lightning attacks by controlling the fight's background music!
==Trivia==
* Kindarspirit's name and character were inspired by the admin of a Kirby fan website named "Kirby's Rainbow Resort". Kindarspirit's childish nature and fondness for cute things (as well as her weather-related powers) are in reference to this.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
[[File:AlphaS1.png|150px|frameless|thumb|left]]Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit (TOME)|Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
[[File:AlphaS2.png|150px|thumb|left]]His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]], and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the [[Netking Software|Netkings]] or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In [[Monstrosities]], Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''"The current incarnation of Alpha is something I'm very happy with. When developing the personalities of the main five characters, Alpha and [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] I had the most difficulty with. My original idea was keeping him fairly the same, but I felt it would've been far too boring to go that route. When I eventually decided to cast Blake Swift as his new actor (replacing Mike Luckas, who voiced "himself" in the original), the rest fell into place.
''Alpha is now actually the youngest of the group, maybe only a year younger than Flamey at the most, but this age difference lets him come off as more spiritedly and naive. He's very sweet and maybe a tad awkward. His relationship with Flamegirl in this one shifted a bit, in which case he's very comfortable around her and can speak his mind when feeling vunerable or out-of-place. He also has a bit more of a bro-rivalry with [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirb]] this time, which makes for some funny moments.
''As seen in the first episode, after being infected with "[[Kajet]]", Alpha's state of mind changes and his confidence comes to the surface. I don't imagine it so much as a split-personality sort of deal, but more like his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions, which ends up being a lifesaver to his friends. In terms of design, I brought down his shirt a bit to show less belly, fixed his hair a bit to have the spike over one eye, as well as his long sleeves and scarf, to project that sort of introverted feel to him. I also gave him a feather-tail to match his angel wings (as opposed to the strange lizard-tail).
''As with the original, Alpha will be going through some major changes in TOME, so look forward to seeing him grow alongside his new-found friends!"''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref>
=====Demon Form=====
''Using the basic idea of the original concept, I expanded upon it and tried to put some logic to it, as well concocting an interesting "science" behind the idea. Imagine if you will, "fusion" characters; those combined from two people...how would their mind work? Would it be like two consciousnesses controlling a single body, or would it be one NEW consciousness all its own?
''The virus the players know as "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]" is an artificial intelligence that we see "speaks" to Alpha throughout the series; whispering ideas of committing horrible acts into the boy's ear. Alpha, although a great player, starts out as being weak-willed and easily-manipulated. When combining an artificial intelligence that cares about nothing but violence with a human mind that is weak enough to be preyed upon, what do you get? The answer is, a savage.
''The "Demon forms" seen in the show are a result of that; mindless, blood-lusting killers, which when FURTHER combined with the virus' mysterious ability of harming other players through the game in real life, makes for a dangerous combination. Additionally, since the virus has been growing stronger being "hosted" in the mind of a human being and feeding off that further negativity, the subsequent appearances of these Demons gets more and more horrifying! Tons of fun to animate for me...but NOT tons of fun for Blake and I to scream our lungs out on!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Demon-Alpha-422842626</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''A previously was shy and introverted teen, now a confident and skilled player. "Michael" discovered a strange entity during his early days in TOME that players called "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]" and was put through a harsh and danger-filled experience after being infected by it. With the power now lost in the depths of TOME, Alpha has sought to move on, but still strives to protect his friends, whom he clings to dearly. He battles with elemental powers inspired by his favorite Greek and Roman Gods.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-S2-478706655</ref>
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]], under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in [[;Mechcity]], which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During [[Infectuation]], a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword ([[Drain Edge]] equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.

*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Kajet|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[The Warring Demons]] to [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Kajet|Demon]] [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in [[Alpha v.s Zetto|AvZ]].
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's childhood friend, Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (RPG)|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit (TOME)|Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]], and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the [[Netking Software|Netkings]] or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In [[Monstrosities]], Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''"The current incarnation of Alpha is something I'm very happy with. When developing the personalities of the main five characters, Alpha and [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] I had the most difficulty with. My original idea was keeping him fairly the same, but I felt it would've been far too boring to go that route. When I eventually decided to cast Blake Swift as his new actor (replacing Mike Luckas, who voiced "himself" in the original), the rest fell into place.
''Alpha is now actually the youngest of the group, maybe only a year younger than Flamey at the most, but this age difference lets him come off as more spiritedly and naive. He's very sweet and maybe a tad awkward. His relationship with Flamegirl in this one shifted a bit, in which case he's very comfortable around her and can speak his mind when feeling vunerable or out-of-place. He also has a bit more of a bro-rivalry with [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirb]] this time, which makes for some funny moments.
''As seen in the first episode, after being infected with "[[Kajet]]", Alpha's state of mind changes and his confidence comes to the surface. I don't imagine it so much as a split-personality sort of deal, but more like his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions, which ends up being a lifesaver to his friends. In terms of design, I brought down his shirt a bit to show less belly, fixed his hair a bit to have the spike over one eye, as well as his long sleeves and scarf, to project that sort of introverted feel to him. I also gave him a feather-tail to match his angel wings (as opposed to the strange lizard-tail).
''As with the original, Alpha will be going through some major changes in TOME, so look forward to seeing him grow alongside his new-found friends!"''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref>
=====Demon Form=====
''Using the basic idea of the original concept, I expanded upon it and tried to put some logic to it, as well concocting an interesting "science" behind the idea. Imagine if you will, "fusion" characters; those combined from two people...how would their mind work? Would it be like two consciousnesses controlling a single body, or would it be one NEW consciousness all its own?
''The virus the players know as "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]" is an artificial intelligence that we see "speaks" to Alpha throughout the series; whispering ideas of committing horrible acts into the boy's ear. Alpha, although a great player, starts out as being weak-willed and easily-manipulated. When combining an artificial intelligence that cares about nothing but violence with a human mind that is weak enough to be preyed upon, what do you get? The answer is, a savage.
''The "Demon forms" seen in the show are a result of that; mindless, blood-lusting killers, which when FURTHER combined with the virus' mysterious ability of harming other players through the game in real life, makes for a dangerous combination. Additionally, since the virus has been growing stronger being "hosted" in the mind of a human being and feeding off that further negativity, the subsequent appearances of these Demons gets more and more horrifying! Tons of fun to animate for me...but NOT tons of fun for Blake and I to scream our lungs out on!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Demon-Alpha-422842626</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''A previously was shy and introverted teen, now a confident and skilled player. "Michael" discovered a strange entity during his early days in TOME that players called "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]" and was put through a harsh and danger-filled experience after being infected by it. With the power now lost in the depths of TOME, Alpha has sought to move on, but still strives to protect his friends, whom he clings to dearly. He battles with elemental powers inspired by his favorite Greek and Roman Gods.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-S2-478706655</ref>
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]], under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in [[;Mechcity]], which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During [[Infectuation]], a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword ([[Drain Edge]] equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Kajet|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[The Warring Demons]] to [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.

''Alpha is now actually the youngest of the group, maybe only a year younger than Flamey at the most, but this age difference lets him come off as more spiritedly and naive. He's very sweet and maybe a tad awkward. His relationship with Flamegirl in this one shifted a bit, in which case he's very comfortable around her and can speak his mind when feeling vunerable or out-of-place. He also has a bit more of a bro-rivalry with [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirb]] this time, which makes for some funny moments.
''As seen in the first episode, after being infected with "[[Kajet]]", Alpha's state of mind changes and his confidence comes to the surface. I don't imagine it so much as a split-personality sort of deal, but more like his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions, which ends up being a lifesaver to his friends. In terms of design, I brought down his shirt a bit to show less belly, fixed his hair a bit to have the spike over one eye, as well as his long sleeves and scarf, to project that sort of introverted feel to him. I also gave him a feather-tail to match his angel wings (as opposed to the strange lizard-tail).

=====Demon Form=====
''Using the basic idea of the original concept, I expanded upon it and tried to put some logic to it, as well concocting an interesting "science" behind the idea. Imagine if you will, "fusion" characters; those combined from two people...how would their mind work? Would it be like two consciousnesses controlling a single body, or would it be one NEW consciousness all its own?
''The virus the players know as "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]" is an artificial intelligence that we see "speaks" to Alpha throughout the series; whispering ideas of committing horrible acts into the boy's ear. Alpha, although a great player, starts out as being weak-willed and easily-manipulated. When combining an artificial intelligence that cares about nothing but violence with a human mind that is weak enough to be preyed upon, what do you get? The answer is, a savage.
''The "Demon forms" seen in the show are a result of that; mindless, blood-lusting killers, which when FURTHER combined with the virus' mysterious ability of harming other players through the game in real life, makes for a dangerous combination. Additionally, since the virus has been growing stronger being "hosted" in the mind of a human being and feeding off that further negativity, the subsequent appearances of these Demons gets more and more horrifying! Tons of fun to animate for me...but NOT tons of fun for Blake and I to scream our lungs out on!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Demon-Alpha-422842626</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''A previously was shy and introverted teen, now a confident and skilled player. "Michael" discovered a strange entity during his early days in TOME that players called "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]" and was put through a harsh and danger-filled experience after being infected by it. With the power now lost in the depths of TOME, Alpha has sought to move on, but still strives to protect his friends, whom he clings to dearly. He battles with elemental powers inspired by his favorite Greek and Roman Gods.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-S2-478706655</ref>
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]], under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in [[;Mechcity]], which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During [[Infectuation]], a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword ([[Drain Edge]] equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Kajet|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[The Warring Demons]] to [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Kajet|Demon]] [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in [[Alpha v.s Zetto|AvZ]].
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Alpha/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's childhood friend, Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (RPG)|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit (TOME)|Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]], and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the [[Netking Software|Netkings]] or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In [[Monstrosities]], Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.

''"The current incarnation of Alpha is something I'm very happy with.

From [[The Warring Demons]] to [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Kajet|Demon]] [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in [[Alpha v.s Zetto|AvZ]].

== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's childhood friend, Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (RPG)|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Kirbopher''', sometimes shortened to "Kirb," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Swordsman]] class with an Enchanted Sword. He is later revealed to be an alternate character account of [[Zetto]], created solely for the fun of the game. Cynical and short-tempered, his character is based on that of the series creator, who shares the same username. Many people mispronounce his name, whether it be in joke or misunderstanding. As of the final episode of season 2, it's implied that 'Kirbopher' is no longer in use.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''Kirbopher’s personality has probably changed the least compared to the original, as evidenced by keeping myself as his voice performer as well.
''From a design standpoint, I opted for his “imp” design as opposed to the unoriginal albino Kirby he once was. This design was, oddly enough, drawn LONG before the original TTA started, but I was forced to go with the Kirby design mainly due to sprite editing limitations.
''Several years ago, when I decided to ditch the stigmatic “15” in my name and switch to the new design, I’ll admit at first I wasn’t too enthused. Kirbopher was, for a while, just a placeholder for Chris Frost from 'BALANCING ACT' before I was comfortable with revealing its existence to the world.
''After some time passed and I had touched up his design to look a bit more tattered (like a trouble-making thief) I grew to like it a whole lot! As far as his role in the story goes, I plan on giving him a lot more development and emotional layers this time around. Surprisingly, part of this was from my choice to not only dis-include him from the resistance against the hackers, but to have him be very uncaring about it. Kirb’s purpose on TOME is to have fun, not to get involved in time-wasting drama. [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], who grows to be one of his closest friends, understands and respects that, giving him the attention he craves in the form of constant battles. The two of them have a fun dynamic separate from the main plot involving the hackers and viruses…and that friendship of theirs will soon be jumped through hoops of fire.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kirbopher-272396614</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''The second of two accounts to a single TOME player. While this person in question is active as Kirbopher, he logs on for the sole purpose of fun and enjoyment. Alpha and company mean the world to him, but Kirb chooses to stay out of their fight against the hackers for personal reasons. He LOVES to fight and often runs his mouth if it means he can draw his sword against a new opponent. His actions are hasty and he's a bit prideful, but really he's a little softy. He battles with a magic sword with a wide variety of attacks.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kirbopher-S2-478707227</ref>
===Season 1===
[[File:Kirb.jpg|thumb|left|185px|Kirb preparing to battle Alpha]]
Kirbopher first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|episode 1]], looking down from a cliff as [[Alpha]] logs in. He challenges him to a battle and promptly loses. Kirbopher and Alpha then meet up with the rest of the gang, who are gearing up to go fight a [[Rockoon (TOME)|couple o]][[Doubling (TOME)|f hackers]] that have been terrorizing [[;Lavendera]].
Kirbopher refuses to join them, as he wants to play "the fun freakin' part of the game." He heads off into the woods to fight a few players, but ends up getting ganged up on. He fortunately runs into [[Flamegirl]] and Alpha, who reluctantly help him fend off the attackers before leaving to fight the hackers. Kirbopher appears at the end of the episode, slashing Rockoon in half as he attempts an escape. When Alpha doesn't notice his entrance, he goes berserk and initiates a battle.
[[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]] begins with Kirb logging into the game, looking for a round of late-night battles in ;Lavendera. He then runs into [[Sniperwheel]], who is ready for one last battle before logging off for the day. Kirbopher narrowly defeats him, and is about to challenge him to another match, when he sees [[Gamecrazed]] leaving the crowd.
He promptly follows him. Along the way, Nylocke joins him, and together they follow Gamecrazed to a mysterious mansion that is supposed to be off-limits. Gamecrazed enters the mansion, with the duo following him. Eventually, they lose track of him and run into [[Asterob]], who is working on completing the Mansion's graphics before it opens. Suddenly, all three of them are attacked by [[Splat]], who incapacitates Nylocke and Kirbopher before demanding Asterob's shield.
Gamecrazed appears and defends Asterob, ultimately defeating Splat. After exiting the mansion, Gamecrazed asks Nylocke and Kirbopher why they were following him. Kirbopher explains that they know almost nothing about Gamecrazed, but admits that following him probably was a dumb idea and he forgives him.
Kirbopher reappears in [[Fraggedquest|episode 4]], joining the rest of the gang on a quest to build and defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol]]. Kirbopher is chosen to find the idol's head at the edge of ;Lavendera, which he reluctantly agrees to do. He quickly finds it, but runs into Rockoon on his way back, who is not too happy about the outcome of their previous encounter. He steals the idol's head and runs off, but accidentally trips and breaks part of its ear. Kirbopher loses him, but does find the head and hurries back to the others, who have found their pieces. They assemble the idol, noting that part of its ear seems to be missing, and then wait in ;Lavendera for the moon to rise.
During the interim, the group discusses hanging out in real life, with Kirbopher being as cynical about the whole idea as ever. When the moon rises, the Shadow Guard Idol comes to life, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the monster, bonding with it and knocking Alpha out of the arena. Kirbopher and the gang's attacks have no effect until Alpha reappears and reunites the piece of the ear with Rockoon, making him vulnerable. Kirbopher uses his wind powers to help defeat Rockoon, before threatening to chop him into pieces again. Rockoon flees, and Kirbopher complains about the lack of reward for completing a hacked quest.
In [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]], Kirbopher first appears training with the others for the Gemini Tournament. He initiates a training round with Alpha, giving him pointers on how to fight with the most energy. When [[Flamegirl]] compliments Alpha on his technique, Kirbopher starts to argue with her about Alpha's friendship, insulting her, angering Alpha, and causing much discomfort for the rest of the group. Suddenly, [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]] appears and knocks Kirbopher away, before using her Sonic Screech ability to bring out the [[Forbidden Power]] inside Alpha. When Alpha turns into his demon form and destroys Tigerlilly, Kirbopher thinks that Alpha is ready for a fight and challenges him. Although they fight evenly for a good while, Kirbopher tells Alpha to show him "the real deal," and Alpha responds by attacking Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power, severely injuring him and defeating him. He is not seen for the rest of the episode.
Kirbopher reappears briefly in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], talking to Gamecrazed in ;Mechcity. When Nylocke arrives, he shows surprise at seeing Kirbopher back in the game, as he had been gone for two days. Kirbopher asks Nylocke to give him some advice. He had wanted to ask Alpha to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament, but after what he said in episode 5, he isn't sure how Alpha will react to him. Nylocke freezes, as this serious question is not something he wants to experience while playing the game. He dodges around the question, giving a vague answer about choosing the right path in friendship.
Kirbopher sighs and says he should probably just wait to talk with Alpha and Flamegirl, and Nylocke enthusiastically agrees with him. Kirbopher then asks if Nylocke would be his partner, but Nylocke also nervously dodges that question and tells Kirbopher to continue training until his "destined brother-in-arms" reveals himself. Disappointed, Kirbopher logs off, saying that he might stay away from the game for a little while longer.
Kirbopher finally logs back in [[Infectuation|Episode 7]], where he is determined to finally talk with Flamegirl and Alpha about the incident in episode 5. Unfortunately, he gets held up by [[Archy]], a rabid fan who has been following Kirbopher. Although Kirbopher repeatedly shuns him, Archy keeps attempting to ask Kirbopher to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament.
These interruptions prevent Kirbopher from getting to Alpha before he is possessed, and thus he shows up just as Flamegirl uses the anti-virus to stabilize Alpha. Misreading the situation, he meets up with them later outside the Balanstadium gates in ;Mechcity, just after Alpha and Flamegirl sign up as a team for the Gemini Tournament. Internally crushed, Kirbopher laughs it off and states that it's better this way, as he can now defeat Alpha in front of the entire world. As he dejectedly walks away, Archy reappears, and Kirbopher grudgingly accepts him as his partner.
Not getting Alpha as his partner has drastically upset his plans, so during the Gemini Tournament, Kirbopher acts much more serious and surly than normal.
In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], Kirbopher faces [[Skeight]] and Rockoon (under the guise of "Raccoon") in the first round. Archy is quickly defeated, and Rockoon disposes of Skeight at his earliest chance. Leaving the two of them alone, Rockoon attempts to defeat Kirbopher with his aptly-named "Kirb Stomp," but is impaled on Kirbopher's sword, leaving Kirbopher the victor.
When he sees Alpha and Flamegirl win their next round, he states that he is "not having a good time," but does not elaborate on what is irking him. Alpha tries to talk to him and warn him about Zetto, but Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's just wasting his time and that he's going to end this as soon as possible. In his next match, against Zetto and [[Kizuna]], he simply walks into the arena and raises his arms, allowing Zetto to destroy him instantly. He is not seen for the rest of the tournament.
Kirbopher appears briefly during the credits sequence of [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], sitting in ;Lavendera with a grieved look on his face.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Kirbopher first appears in the forest of ;Lavendera with Gamecrazed, gearing himself up to try and repair his relationship with Alpha and Flamegirl. When they do arrive, he congratulates them on their performance in the tournament, but before he can try to ask for their friendship, a large group of players assaults them, aiming for Alpha. Although the group is defeated, Alpha begins to lament that he is sick and tired of the Forbidden Power and just wants to be rid of it forever. With a guilty look, Kirbopher slips away and heads to the ;Mechcity docks, where he disconnects from the game and logs into TOME's moon as Zetto. This was the official revelation that Kirbopher is, in fact, an alternate account for Zetto. Kirbopher only reappears as himself at the end of the episode, standing in front of the crater in the Balanstadium where Zetto had been defeated, with a tired look on his face. Gamecrazed is there with him, telling him, "It's over."
===Season 2===
Kirbopher returns in [[Year One|Episode 11]], back to his usual cynical self. He is first seen walking towards ;Sanctuary from ;Mechcity, when he is challenged by Alpha. Victorious as usual, Alpha invites him to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher does indeed show up, and is present, along with Nylocke, when Gamecrazed is selected for the Challenge of the Netkings quest.
When Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join Gamecrazed's team, Kirbopher nearly refuses, but then caves in when the rest of the group insists that he join the team, "just like old times," as Alpha puts it. He then joins the gang the next day at the Netking statues, where he and the other four are taken up to HOME. He isn't fazed by the somewhat unexpected look of the first room and encourages the others to get going.
When [[Execk]] appears, Kirbopher taunts him, causing Execk to freeze him in a block of ice. Flamegirl thaws him out only after Alpha defeats Execk, stating he "needed the time out." Alpha says that Kirbopher helped him by revealing some of Execk's powers before the match, to which Kirbopher replies that he completely meant to do that. When a portal appears to the next room, Kirbopher follows Nylocke, telling him to slow down. In the next room, a large crystal cavern, Alpha says that something feels different about this area, but Kirbopher counters that it's probably just the Netking putting on a show. A giant crystal then rises out of the ground and shatters, revealing what appears to be Zetto, which absolutely shocks Kirbopher.
[[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] picks up right where Episode 11 left off. "Zetto" begins bragging in a very over-the-top, dramatic way, before revealing himself to be [[Rubirules]] in disguise. Kirbopher is incredibly weirded out by the experience, and almost starts the fight with Rubirules. Nylocke takes his place instead, saying that Rubirules' appearance as Zetto has made the battle personal. Nylocke eventually defeats Rubirules, and the group heads into the next area through another portal.
This area seems to be a temple in the clouds, and Kirbopher once again reminds the gang that the area design means nothing. [[Kindarspirit]] then appears and greets the group using her system voice. Kirbopher tells her that she doesn't need to be in character around them and that they know it's just a game. With that said, Kindarspirit reverts to her true personality and goes crazy over how cute Kirbopher is, grabbing him and hugging him. She then traps him in a cloud and sends him up to the ceiling. Flamegirl offers to "save" Kirbopher and defeats Kindarspirit. Kirbopher is freed, now very angry at his lack of battles, and the group proceeds to the next area. Before fighting the next Netking, the group discusses what their prize should be if they win.
Alpha suggests that they should set up some sort of meet-and-greet with the creators, and Kirbopher surprisingly agrees to the idea. [[Bitshrum]] then appears and challenges one of them to topple him from his throne. As Gamecrazed will fight the last Netking, Kirbopher must fight Bitshrum. Kirbopher is none too happy that he has to fight "the mushroom guy," and this is only made worse as Nylocke begins describing the glorious battle between a squire and a king. At this, Kirbopher loses his cool and charges Bitshrum, screaming that he's not a squire and he's not an imp. He carves through Bitshrum's box powers and defeats him, Super Mario Bros. style. From atop the throne, Kirbopher screams that he is the greatest player in TOME, better than any of the Netkings. After a bit of coaxing, he hops down from the throne. When the next portal opens, Nylocke allows Kirbopher to go before him, calling him "Your Majesty." Webmaster appears on the other side, and after a fierce battle, Gamecrazed defeats him.
After the group is congratulated by the Netkings, Zetto and Kizuna are revealed to be former Netkings themselves. Kirbopher notices that Alpha starts getting worked up when this is mentioned and tries to stop him before he says anything. Alpha ignores him and asks the Netkings about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Kirbopher states that the group isn't obligated to keep anything the Netkings say secret. The Netkings refuse to reveal anything when they see the Power approaching HOME and forcefully log the players out.
In Episode 13, Alpha confronts Kirbopher at a park in ;Mechcity to request his help for a mission to infiltrate D-Buggers. Kirbopher states that he's not going and snaps at Alpha, telling him he needs to stop trying to play the hero and just play the game for what it is. Alpha says he has to do this, in which Kirb remarks that he's crazy. They both part ways afterward and Kirb isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
In [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto logs back in as Kirb after being defeated by the malfunctioning Dragon Bug, having left him still in the game. He talks if he can't stop the Dragon Bug while in his current form, he adds that he at least tried to destroy the Forbidden Power, [[Kajet]]. Kirb calls the monster's attention before he attacks. Kirb puts up a good fight against the virus, but his sword is soon absorbed into the dragon and he begins to get crushed in its fist. When the Dragon Bug arrives from the moon, Kajet flings Kirb's damaged model into Sanctuary, where Alpha finds him unstable and unconscious.
==Personality==
Kirbopher aims to enjoy himself in TOME, choosing not to get involved in 'drama' that he considers pointless. He's shown to be very hyperactive, short-tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied by his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10. Though he's snarky and sarcastic towards his friends, and can get annoyed with them sometimes (especially Nylocke), he is shown to care deeply about them, and has a sensitive side that he seems to prefer not to show.
Throughout the series, he is shown to have a tendency of taking his anger/frustrations out on other people. From Episode 1, he decides to defeat Rockoon, despite the other already running away, out of frustration that the hacker isn't following his (Zetto's) orders.
It's also implied that Kirbopher has issues controlling his jealousy. In Episode 5, he's clearly envious of the newfound attention that Alpha receives following his defeat of the hackers, responding poorly to the compliments Flamegirl gives the other. He is also jealous of the attention that Alpha gives her. In the fact bubble for Episode 5, it's stated that he is "very attached" to Alpha as a friend<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlbwGkbWLg</ref>, and within the episode, he insults Flamegirl her by calling her a cougar, seemingly implying that he wants her to back off of the other.
As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, offering up the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. Though he probably does wish could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in [[Plan Z|Short #7]] that the 'Kirbopher' account was created to as an escape from his search for the Forbidden Power, and to enjoy TOME for how it should've been, just hanging out with his friends.
He has a tendency to talk to himself.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
[[File:Kirb_with_friends.jpg|thumb|left|188px|Kirbopher challenges Alpha to another match.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Kirbopher and Alpha are very good friends, and seem to have known each other for quite a while. Kirbopher sees Alpha as a friendly rival to test his skills against, though sometimes he gets jealous of the amount of attention Alpha gets. In the latter half of season 1, however, they become rather distant from each other ever since Alpha unintentionally hurt him with the Forbidden Power in episode 5. After an argument with Flamegirl, Kirbopher feels bad for how he acted and wants to apologize. In Infectuation, Alpha is relieved that Kirbopher is all right, but Kirbopher gets upset when Alpha says that Flamegirl is his partner for the Gemini Tournament as he thought his plan would've gone smoother. Later on in the season, he seem to be even more distant from the group because of the circumstances with the Forbidden Power.<br /><br />Fortunately, by the events of the second season, Alpha has moved on from the Gemini Tournament conflicts, and insists that Kirbopher join the group on the Challenge of the Netkings quest. Things are back to normal until Episode 13, where Kirb and Alpha's conflicting goals and views cause them to separate once again.
[[File:Kirb_with_nylocke.jpg|thumb|right|188px|Kirb with Nylocke in the mansion.]]
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Although Nylocke and Kirbopher tend to get along with each other pretty well, Nylocke is the one who Kirbopher shows aggravation at the most out of anyone else. However, when Kirbopher is feeling upset in episode 6, he immediately goes to Nylocke for help, even though Nylocke is unable to give him a straight answer. Kirbopher even considered asking Nylocke to be his partner if his plan didn't turn out as he hoped.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': Kirbopher and Flamegirl are good friends but before he seemed to generally dislike Flamegirl. There are times where he insults her about her feelings for Alpha, and because of that they often get into fights and arguments with each other. They disagree on several things, such as whether or not their time in TOME should be spent fighting hackers instead of playing the game like normal. In season 2 however, their relationship has gotten better but they still tease each other in a more playful manner.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Due to his quiet nature, Gamecrazed has not had much interaction with Kirbopher. In episode 2, Kirbopher and Nylocke attempt to tail Gamecrazed in order to learn more about him. The attempt is foiled, however, when Splat attacks the mansion. Gamecrazed was also the first person Kirbopher talks to after his fallout with Alpha and Flamegirl, and it is hinted that Gamecrazed may be privy to Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]].
*'''[[Archy]]''': Kirbopher tolerates Archy at best and outright insults him at worst. Although not stated, it is implied that Archy has been following him for quite some time, causing Kirbopher to become rather annoyed when he appears. Archy becomes his Gemini partner only because Kirbopher's other choices (Alpha and Nylocke) were taken.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher is an alternative account of Zetto. It was through Kirbopher that Zetto was able to monitor Alpha's condition. There are several occasions where Kirbopher logs in both as Zetto and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposely let Kirbopher take Zetto's Breaker Beam in order to continue through the Gemini Tournament as Zetto; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually log himself in as Zetto to confront Alpha and the [[Forbidden Power]]. After a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control, his body badly damaged.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Although Kirbopher does not actively fight the hackers, his accidental encounter with Rockoon has caused the two to have a mutual aversion to each other. However, in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], he seems to be sympathetic towards Rockoon after he witnesses Rockoon's fallout with [[Skeight]]. This may be due to him seeing the kind of trouble that occurs when a person uses two characters at the same time without admitting they are the same person.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Spin Slash''': An aerial cutting attack in which the user spins rapidly into a powerful cut. This technique can be turned into a Shockwave upon finishing.
*'''Ice Knives''': A projectile attack where a swarm of sharp icicles spread out from a slash of the user’s weapon.
*'''Dust Tornado''': A slow, but forceful projectile attack that can entrap the opponent and allows for a swift follow-up combo.
*'''Shockwave''': A powerful attack that travels along the ground and trips up the opponent upon impact.

==Trivia==
*Kirbopher and TOME in general make allusions to the number "11" in some shape or form.
**The release date for [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]] was 11-11-11, and the end of the original About TOME trailer showed Kirbopher running up and slicing the date in half.
**In the original ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Kirbopher was named "Kirbopher15". 15 is 1111 in binary.
**In Episode 10, the time when Alpha arrives at Balanstadium to meet Zetto is 11:11:11.
**Episode 11 shows Kirbopher's player ID is 001-501-111.
*During Episode 11 of ''TV TOME Adventures'', in which [https://kirbopher15.deviantart.com/art/Tsuzuku-14427657 Tsuzuku] (who would become [[Tsuzuku]] in TOME) would repeatedly call Kirbopher15 "Kirbofour15".
**This was also referenced in the [[April Fools Special]] short, in which a spoofed version of Kirbopher15 appears, named Kirbo4.
* His design seems to be loosely inspired by [[w:c:zelda:Link|Link]] from ''[[w:c:zelda:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
*Chris Niosi, along with Alpha's voice actor Blake Swift, sings TOME's first season main theme ("[[Battle On!]]").
*Kirbopher's height is somewhat inconsistent. He is clearly the shortest of the others, but in some scenes, he stands more than a foot shorter than his friends, and in other shots he is almost as tall as Alpha or Flamegirl.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in Episode 10 and Plan Z, clues were dropped throughout The Gemini Tournament arc and Episode 10 to indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person.
**Both Zetto and Kirbopher were interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher stood immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
**With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
** Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines are both, "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say, "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!"
**As Webmaster stated at the end of Episode 10, players who left the game without logging off remained in the game with their eyes turned grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after losing to Alpha after being controlled by the Forbidden Power, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Another clue exclusive to the "Kirbopher" account is in Episode 7 he hears Demon Alpha's scream and panics a bit, also telling Archy to get lost, implying that he already knows about the Forbidden Power.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor, although this was not revealed until Episode 10.
**Also, in Episode 1, during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.

'''Kirbopher''', sometimes shortened to "Kirb," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in [[TOME (Series)|TOME]], of the [[Swordsman]] class with an Enchanted Sword. He is later revealed to be an alternate character account of [[Zetto]], created solely for the fun of the game. Cynical and short-tempered, his character is based on that of the series creator, who shares the same username. Many people mispronounce his name, whether it be in joke or misunderstanding. As of the final episode of season 2, it's implied that 'Kirbopher' is no longer in use.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''Kirbopher’s personality has probably changed the least compared to the original, as evidenced by keeping myself as his voice performer as well.
''From a design standpoint, I opted for his “imp” design as opposed to the unoriginal albino Kirby he once was. This design was, oddly enough, drawn LONG before the original TTA started, but I was forced to go with the Kirby design mainly due to sprite editing limitations.
''Several years ago, when I decided to ditch the stigmatic “15” in my name and switch to the new design, I’ll admit at first I wasn’t too enthused. Kirbopher was, for a while, just a placeholder for Chris Frost from 'BALANCING ACT' before I was comfortable with revealing its existence to the world.
''After some time passed and I had touched up his design to look a bit more tattered (like a trouble-making thief) I grew to like it a whole lot! As far as his role in the story goes, I plan on giving him a lot more development and emotional layers this time around. Surprisingly, part of this was from my choice to not only dis-include him from the resistance against the hackers, but to have him be very uncaring about it. Kirb’s purpose on TOME is to have fun, not to get involved in time-wasting drama. [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], who grows to be one of his closest friends, understands and respects that, giving him the attention he craves in the form of constant battles. The two of them have a fun dynamic separate from the main plot involving the hackers and viruses…and that friendship of theirs will soon be jumped through hoops of fire.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kirbopher-272396614</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''The second of two accounts to a single TOME player. While this person in question is active as Kirbopher, he logs on for the sole purpose of fun and enjoyment. Alpha and company mean the world to him, but Kirb chooses to stay out of their fight against the hackers for personal reasons. He LOVES to fight and often runs his mouth if it means he can draw his sword against a new opponent. His actions are hasty and he's a bit prideful, but really he's a little softy. He battles with a magic sword with a wide variety of attacks.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Kirbopher-S2-478707227</ref>
===Season 1===
[[File:Kirb.jpg|thumb|left|185px|Kirb preparing to battle Alpha]]
Kirbopher first appears in [[You've Gotta Virus|episode 1]], looking down from a cliff as [[Alpha]] logs in. He challenges him to a battle and promptly loses. Kirbopher and Alpha then meet up with the rest of the gang, who are gearing up to go fight a [[Rockoon (TOME)|couple o]][[Doubling (TOME)|f hackers]] that have been terrorizing [[;Lavendera]].
Kirbopher refuses to join them, as he wants to play "the fun freakin' part of the game." He heads off into the woods to fight a few players, but ends up getting ganged up on. He fortunately runs into [[Flamegirl]] and Alpha, who reluctantly help him fend off the attackers before leaving to fight the hackers. Kirbopher appears at the end of the episode, slashing Rockoon in half as he attempts an escape. When Alpha doesn't notice his entrance, he goes berserk and initiates a battle.
[[Mansion Midnight|Episode 2]] begins with Kirb logging into the game, looking for a round of late-night battles in ;Lavendera. He then runs into [[Sniperwheel]], who is ready for one last battle before logging off for the day. Kirbopher narrowly defeats him, and is about to challenge him to another match, when he sees [[Gamecrazed]] leaving the crowd.
He promptly follows him. Along the way, Nylocke joins him, and together they follow Gamecrazed to a mysterious mansion that is supposed to be off-limits. Gamecrazed enters the mansion, with the duo following him. Eventually, they lose track of him and run into [[Asterob]], who is working on completing the Mansion's graphics before it opens. Suddenly, all three of them are attacked by [[Splat]], who incapacitates Nylocke and Kirbopher before demanding Asterob's shield.
Gamecrazed appears and defends Asterob, ultimately defeating Splat. After exiting the mansion, Gamecrazed asks Nylocke and Kirbopher why they were following him. Kirbopher explains that they know almost nothing about Gamecrazed, but admits that following him probably was a dumb idea and he forgives him.
Kirbopher reappears in [[Fraggedquest|episode 4]], joining the rest of the gang on a quest to build and defeat the [[Shadow Guard Idol]]. Kirbopher is chosen to find the idol's head at the edge of ;Lavendera, which he reluctantly agrees to do. He quickly finds it, but runs into Rockoon on his way back, who is not too happy about the outcome of their previous encounter. He steals the idol's head and runs off, but accidentally trips and breaks part of its ear. Kirbopher loses him, but does find the head and hurries back to the others, who have found their pieces. They assemble the idol, noting that part of its ear seems to be missing, and then wait in ;Lavendera for the moon to rise.
During the interim, the group discusses hanging out in real life, with Kirbopher being as cynical about the whole idea as ever. When the moon rises, the Shadow Guard Idol comes to life, but Rockoon appears and hacks into the monster, bonding with it and knocking Alpha out of the arena. Kirbopher and the gang's attacks have no effect until Alpha reappears and reunites the piece of the ear with Rockoon, making him vulnerable. Kirbopher uses his wind powers to help defeat Rockoon, before threatening to chop him into pieces again. Rockoon flees, and Kirbopher complains about the lack of reward for completing a hacked quest.
In [[Awaken the Beast|episode 5]], Kirbopher first appears training with the others for the Gemini Tournament. He initiates a training round with Alpha, giving him pointers on how to fight with the most energy. When [[Flamegirl]] compliments Alpha on his technique, Kirbopher starts to argue with her about Alpha's friendship, insulting her, angering Alpha, and causing much discomfort for the rest of the group. Suddenly, [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]] appears and knocks Kirbopher away, before using her Sonic Screech ability to bring out the [[Forbidden Power]] inside Alpha. When Alpha turns into his demon form and destroys Tigerlilly, Kirbopher thinks that Alpha is ready for a fight and challenges him. Although they fight evenly for a good while, Kirbopher tells Alpha to show him "the real deal," and Alpha responds by attacking Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power, severely injuring him and defeating him. He is not seen for the rest of the episode.
Kirbopher reappears briefly in [[Dragon Drama|Episode 6]], talking to Gamecrazed in ;Mechcity. When Nylocke arrives, he shows surprise at seeing Kirbopher back in the game, as he had been gone for two days. Kirbopher asks Nylocke to give him some advice. He had wanted to ask Alpha to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament, but after what he said in episode 5, he isn't sure how Alpha will react to him. Nylocke freezes, as this serious question is not something he wants to experience while playing the game. He dodges around the question, giving a vague answer about choosing the right path in friendship.
Kirbopher sighs and says he should probably just wait to talk with Alpha and Flamegirl, and Nylocke enthusiastically agrees with him. Kirbopher then asks if Nylocke would be his partner, but Nylocke also nervously dodges that question and tells Kirbopher to continue training until his "destined brother-in-arms" reveals himself. Disappointed, Kirbopher logs off, saying that he might stay away from the game for a little while longer.
Kirbopher finally logs back in [[Infectuation|Episode 7]], where he is determined to finally talk with Flamegirl and Alpha about the incident in episode 5. Unfortunately, he gets held up by [[Archy]], a rabid fan who has been following Kirbopher. Although Kirbopher repeatedly shuns him, Archy keeps attempting to ask Kirbopher to be his partner for the Gemini Tournament.
These interruptions prevent Kirbopher from getting to Alpha before he is possessed, and thus he shows up just as Flamegirl uses the anti-virus to stabilize Alpha. Misreading the situation, he meets up with them later outside the Balanstadium gates in ;Mechcity, just after Alpha and Flamegirl sign up as a team for the Gemini Tournament. Internally crushed, Kirbopher laughs it off and states that it's better this way, as he can now defeat Alpha in front of the entire world. As he dejectedly walks away, Archy reappears, and Kirbopher grudgingly accepts him as his partner.
Not getting Alpha as his partner has drastically upset his plans, so during the Gemini Tournament, Kirbopher acts much more serious and surly than normal.
In [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], Kirbopher faces [[Skeight]] and Rockoon (under the guise of "Raccoon") in the first round. Archy is quickly defeated, and Rockoon disposes of Skeight at his earliest chance. Leaving the two of them alone, Rockoon attempts to defeat Kirbopher with his aptly-named "Kirb Stomp," but is impaled on Kirbopher's sword, leaving Kirbopher the victor.
When he sees Alpha and Flamegirl win their next round, he states that he is "not having a good time," but does not elaborate on what is irking him. Alpha tries to talk to him and warn him about Zetto, but Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's just wasting his time and that he's going to end this as soon as possible. In his next match, against Zetto and [[Kizuna]], he simply walks into the arena and raises his arms, allowing Zetto to destroy him instantly. He is not seen for the rest of the tournament.
Kirbopher appears briefly during the credits sequence of [[Gemini Tournament Yang|Episode 9]], sitting in ;Lavendera with a grieved look on his face.
In [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]], Kirbopher first appears in the forest of ;Lavendera with Gamecrazed, gearing himself up to try and repair his relationship with Alpha and Flamegirl. When they do arrive, he congratulates them on their performance in the tournament, but before he can try to ask for their friendship, a large group of players assaults them, aiming for Alpha. Although the group is defeated, Alpha begins to lament that he is sick and tired of the Forbidden Power and just wants to be rid of it forever. With a guilty look, Kirbopher slips away and heads to the ;Mechcity docks, where he disconnects from the game and logs into TOME's moon as Zetto. This was the official revelation that Kirbopher is, in fact, an alternate account for Zetto. Kirbopher only reappears as himself at the end of the episode, standing in front of the crater in the Balanstadium where Zetto had been defeated, with a tired look on his face. Gamecrazed is there with him, telling him, "It's over."
===Season 2===
Kirbopher returns in [[Year One|Episode 11]], back to his usual cynical self. He is first seen walking towards ;Sanctuary from ;Mechcity, when he is challenged by Alpha. Victorious as usual, Alpha invites him to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher does indeed show up, and is present, along with Nylocke, when Gamecrazed is selected for the Challenge of the Netkings quest.
When Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join Gamecrazed's team, Kirbopher nearly refuses, but then caves in when the rest of the group insists that he join the team, "just like old times," as Alpha puts it. He then joins the gang the next day at the Netking statues, where he and the other four are taken up to HOME. He isn't fazed by the somewhat unexpected look of the first room and encourages the others to get going.
When [[Execk]] appears, Kirbopher taunts him, causing Execk to freeze him in a block of ice. Flamegirl thaws him out only after Alpha defeats Execk, stating he "needed the time out." Alpha says that Kirbopher helped him by revealing some of Execk's powers before the match, to which Kirbopher replies that he completely meant to do that. When a portal appears to the next room, Kirbopher follows Nylocke, telling him to slow down. In the next room, a large crystal cavern, Alpha says that something feels different about this area, but Kirbopher counters that it's probably just the Netking putting on a show. A giant crystal then rises out of the ground and shatters, revealing what appears to be Zetto, which absolutely shocks Kirbopher.
[[Secret of the Netkings|Episode 12]] picks up right where Episode 11 left off. "Zetto" begins bragging in a very over-the-top, dramatic way, before revealing himself to be [[Rubirules]] in disguise. Kirbopher is incredibly weirded out by the experience, and almost starts the fight with Rubirules. Nylocke takes his place instead, saying that Rubirules' appearance as Zetto has made the battle personal. Nylocke eventually defeats Rubirules, and the group heads into the next area through another portal.
This area seems to be a temple in the clouds, and Kirbopher once again reminds the gang that the area design means nothing. [[Kindarspirit]] then appears and greets the group using her system voice. Kirbopher tells her that she doesn't need to be in character around them and that they know it's just a game. With that said, Kindarspirit reverts to her true personality and goes crazy over how cute Kirbopher is, grabbing him and hugging him. She then traps him in a cloud and sends him up to the ceiling. Flamegirl offers to "save" Kirbopher and defeats Kindarspirit. Kirbopher is freed, now very angry at his lack of battles, and the group proceeds to the next area. Before fighting the next Netking, the group discusses what their prize should be if they win.
Alpha suggests that they should set up some sort of meet-and-greet with the creators, and Kirbopher surprisingly agrees to the idea. [[Bitshrum]] then appears and challenges one of them to topple him from his throne. As Gamecrazed will fight the last Netking, Kirbopher must fight Bitshrum. Kirbopher is none too happy that he has to fight "the mushroom guy," and this is only made worse as Nylocke begins describing the glorious battle between a squire and a king. At this, Kirbopher loses his cool and charges Bitshrum, screaming that he's not a squire and he's not an imp. He carves through Bitshrum's box powers and defeats him, Super Mario Bros. style. From atop the throne, Kirbopher screams that he is the greatest player in TOME, better than any of the Netkings. After a bit of coaxing, he hops down from the throne. When the next portal opens, Nylocke allows Kirbopher to go before him, calling him "Your Majesty." Webmaster appears on the other side, and after a fierce battle, Gamecrazed defeats him.
After the group is congratulated by the Netkings, Zetto and Kizuna are revealed to be former Netkings themselves. Kirbopher notices that Alpha starts getting worked up when this is mentioned and tries to stop him before he says anything. Alpha ignores him and asks the Netkings about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Kirbopher states that the group isn't obligated to keep anything the Netkings say secret. The Netkings refuse to reveal anything when they see the Power approaching HOME and forcefully log the players out.
In Episode 13, Alpha confronts Kirbopher at a park in ;Mechcity to request his help for a mission to infiltrate D-Buggers. Kirbopher states that he's not going and snaps at Alpha, telling him he needs to stop trying to play the hero and just play the game for what it is. Alpha says he has to do this, in which Kirb remarks that he's crazy. They both part ways afterward and Kirb isn't seen for the rest of the episode.
In [[Monstrosities|Episode 14]], Zetto logs back in as Kirb after being defeated by the malfunctioning Dragon Bug, having left him still in the game. He talks if he can't stop the Dragon Bug while in his current form, he adds that he at least tried to destroy the Forbidden Power, [[Kajet]]. Kirb calls the monster's attention before he attacks. Kirb puts up a good fight against the virus, but his sword is soon absorbed into the dragon and he begins to get crushed in its fist. When the Dragon Bug arrives from the moon, Kajet flings Kirb's damaged model into Sanctuary, where Alpha finds him unstable and unconscious.
==Personality==
Kirbopher aims to enjoy himself in TOME, choosing not to get involved in 'drama' that he considers pointless. He's shown to be very hyperactive, short-tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied by his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10. Though he's snarky and sarcastic towards his friends, and can get annoyed with them sometimes (especially Nylocke), he is shown to care deeply about them, and has a sensitive side that he seems to prefer not to show.
Throughout the series, he is shown to have a tendency of taking his anger/frustrations out on other people. From Episode 1, he decides to defeat Rockoon, despite the other already running away, out of frustration that the hacker isn't following his (Zetto's) orders.
It's also implied that Kirbopher has issues controlling his jealousy. In Episode 5, he's clearly envious of the newfound attention that Alpha receives following his defeat of the hackers, responding poorly to the compliments Flamegirl gives the other. He is also jealous of the attention that Alpha gives her. In the fact bubble for Episode 5, it's stated that he is "very attached" to Alpha as a friend<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKlbwGkbWLg</ref>, and within the episode, he insults Flamegirl her by calling her a cougar, seemingly implying that he wants her to back off of the other.
As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, offering up the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. Though he probably does wish could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in [[Plan Z|Short #7]] that the 'Kirbopher' account was created to as an escape from his search for the Forbidden Power, and to enjoy TOME for how it should've been, just hanging out with his friends.
He has a tendency to talk to himself.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
[[File:Kirb_with_friends.jpg|thumb|left|188px|Kirbopher challenges Alpha to another match.]]
*'''[[Alpha]]''': Kirbopher and Alpha are very good friends, and seem to have known each other for quite a while. Kirbopher sees Alpha as a friendly rival to test his skills against, though sometimes he gets jealous of the amount of attention Alpha gets. In the latter half of season 1, however, they become rather distant from each other ever since Alpha unintentionally hurt him with the Forbidden Power in episode 5. After an argument with Flamegirl, Kirbopher feels bad for how he acted and wants to apologize. In Infectuation, Alpha is relieved that Kirbopher is all right, but Kirbopher gets upset when Alpha says that Flamegirl is his partner for the Gemini Tournament as he thought his plan would've gone smoother. Later on in the season, he seem to be even more distant from the group because of the circumstances with the Forbidden Power.<br /><br />Fortunately, by the events of the second season, Alpha has moved on from the Gemini Tournament conflicts, and insists that Kirbopher join the group on the Challenge of the Netkings quest. Things are back to normal until Episode 13, where Kirb and Alpha's conflicting goals and views cause them to separate once again.
[[File:Kirb_with_nylocke.jpg|thumb|right|188px|Kirb with Nylocke in the mansion.]]
*'''[[Nylocke]]''': Although Nylocke and Kirbopher tend to get along with each other pretty well, Nylocke is the one who Kirbopher shows aggravation at the most out of anyone else. However, when Kirbopher is feeling upset in episode 6, he immediately goes to Nylocke for help, even though Nylocke is unable to give him a straight answer. Kirbopher even considered asking Nylocke to be his partner if his plan didn't turn out as he hoped.
*'''[[Flamegirl]]''': Kirbopher and Flamegirl are good friends but before he seemed to generally dislike Flamegirl. There are times where he insults her about her feelings for Alpha, and because of that they often get into fights and arguments with each other. They disagree on several things, such as whether or not their time in TOME should be spent fighting hackers instead of playing the game like normal. In season 2 however, their relationship has gotten better but they still tease each other in a more playful manner.
*'''[[Gamecrazed]]''': Due to his quiet nature, Gamecrazed has not had much interaction with Kirbopher. In episode 2, Kirbopher and Nylocke attempt to tail Gamecrazed in order to learn more about him. The attempt is foiled, however, when Splat attacks the mansion. Gamecrazed was also the first person Kirbopher talks to after his fallout with Alpha and Flamegirl, and it is hinted that Gamecrazed may be privy to Kirbopher's [[Zetto|secret]].
*'''[[Archy]]''': Kirbopher tolerates Archy at best and outright insults him at worst. Although not stated, it is implied that Archy has been following him for quite some time, causing Kirbopher to become rather annoyed when he appears. Archy becomes his Gemini partner only because Kirbopher's other choices (Alpha and Nylocke) were taken.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': It was first revealed in [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] that Kirbopher is an alternative account of Zetto. It was through Kirbopher that Zetto was able to monitor Alpha's condition. There are several occasions where Kirbopher logs in both as Zetto and himself; in [[Gemini Tournament Yin|Episode 8]], he purposely let Kirbopher take Zetto's Breaker Beam in order to continue through the Gemini Tournament as Zetto; in Episode 10, he is shown to unhook himself from Kirbopher and eventually log himself in as Zetto to confront Alpha and the [[Forbidden Power]]. After a fierce battle, Zetto once again unhooks himself and regains Kirbopher's control, his body badly damaged.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon]]''': Although Kirbopher does not actively fight the hackers, his accidental encounter with Rockoon has caused the two to have a mutual aversion to each other. However, in [[The Infiltration Mission|Episode 13]], he seems to be sympathetic towards Rockoon after he witnesses Rockoon's fallout with [[Skeight]]. This may be due to him seeing the kind of trouble that occurs when a person uses two characters at the same time without admitting they are the same person.
==Attacks and Moves==
*'''Spin Slash''': An aerial cutting attack in which the user spins rapidly into a powerful cut. This technique can be turned into a Shockwave upon finishing.
*'''Ice Knives''': A projectile attack where a swarm of sharp icicles spread out from a slash of the user’s weapon.
*'''Dust Tornado''': A slow, but forceful projectile attack that can entrap the opponent and allows for a swift follow-up combo.
*'''Shockwave''': A powerful attack that travels along the ground and trips up the opponent upon impact.

==Trivia==
*Kirbopher and TOME in general make allusions to the number "11" in some shape or form.
**The release date for [[You've Gotta Virus|Episode 1]] was 11-11-11, and the end of the original About TOME trailer showed Kirbopher running up and slicing the date in half.
**In the original ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', Kirbopher was named "Kirbopher15". 15 is 1111 in binary.
**In Episode 10, the time when Alpha arrives at Balanstadium to meet Zetto is 11:11:11.
**Episode 11 shows Kirbopher's player ID is 001-501-111.
*During Episode 11 of ''TV TOME Adventures'', in which [https://kirbopher15.deviantart.com/art/Tsuzuku-14427657 Tsuzuku] (who would become [[Tsuzuku]] in TOME) would repeatedly call Kirbopher15 "Kirbofour15".
**This was also referenced in the [[April Fools Special]] short, in which a spoofed version of Kirbopher15 appears, named Kirbo4.
* His design seems to be loosely inspired by [[w:c:zelda:Link|Link]] from ''[[w:c:zelda:The Legend of Zelda series|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
*Chris Niosi, along with Alpha's voice actor Blake Swift, sings TOME's first season main theme ("[[Battle On!]]").
*Kirbopher's height is somewhat inconsistent. He is clearly the shortest of the others, but in some scenes, he stands more than a foot shorter than his friends, and in other shots he is almost as tall as Alpha or Flamegirl.
*Before Zetto's reveal as Kirbopher in Episode 10 and Plan Z, clues were dropped throughout The Gemini Tournament arc and Episode 10 to indicate Zetto and Kirbopher are the same person.
**Both Zetto and Kirbopher were interested almost solely in the fighting part of the game.
** Kirbopher stood immobile when battling Zetto; this is likely because the player could not play as both Kirbopher and Zetto.
**With the exception of the Gemini Tournament, Zetto never appeared at the same time as Kirbopher.
** Both Kirbopher and Zetto have had similar dialogue. When first introduced in the show, their first lines are both, "Well, it's about time." During Kirbopher's fight with Demon Alpha and Zetto's tournament fight with Alpha, both characters say, "Quit screwing around and show me the real deal!"
**As Webmaster stated at the end of Episode 10, players who left the game without logging off remained in the game with their eyes turned grey. When Kirbopher's eyes turned grey, Zetto immediately logged into the game. Conversely, when Zetto's eyes turned grey after losing to Alpha after being controlled by the Forbidden Power, Kirbopher was moving around normally in the game.
**Another clue exclusive to the "Kirbopher" account is in Episode 7 he hears Demon Alpha's scream and panics a bit, also telling Archy to get lost, implying that he already knows about the Forbidden Power.
**Both are voiced by the same voice actor, although this was not revealed until Episode 10.
**Also, in Episode 1, during the "Continue?" end scene, Kirbopher is identified with the color blue and Alpha with the color red. When Zetto is introduced, his color is also blue, to Alpha's red.

'''Flamegirl''', sometimes called "Flamey" (born Stephanie Basco), is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in TOME, a [[Spellcaster]] with the power of fire. Unbeknownst to her, the antivirus program - or "Purple Flame" - to cure the Forbidden Power had been attached to her character model in [[Highest Form of Flattery]], which was the power source of the Dragon Bug. This made her the only person able to stop the Power's influence on [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], and later put her in risk of brain death when the Purple Flame was used by [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]] to try and control SOFDTI.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''I knew her design would be staying relatively the same, but even that was tough. I fine-tuned her outfit a little, shortened her wings and gave her a matching tail...and the hair. Ohhh the hair. Even the cut that I eventually settled on proved to be difficult to manage, since drawing her little fire-loopy things that hang down turned out to be a major pain in the ass; maybe they won't be for long.
''Once I had her design in place, next came her personality. Flamey was the only of the main five characters I actually held private voiceover auditions for. Ultimately, at the advice of many people I trusted, I went with newcomer Anna Kingsley, who I think has been doing quite well so far and has been growing as an actress over the course of the series along with her character. I wanted to go with a fairly unique sound and Anna's voice, being relatively new to the scene, was a good fit.
''In terms of writing her dialogue, to this day I'm still a little shaky on what works for her or not. Going into the series, I knew I wanted to exaggerate Alpha's shyness, Kirbopher's anger and Nylocke's over-the-topness, while taking Gamecrazed's original snark and dryness and dividing it up amongst Kirb and Flamegirl. I consider Flamey to be the most "normal" of the main five; the most like a typical teenager/young woman (I peg her at about 18-19 or so) and therefore, the unofficial "leader" of the gang. Nylocke acts as such, especially when leading them against the hacker threat, but because he's so caught up in his character, Flamey is the intellect behind his muscle.
''In terms of her "budding romance" with Alpha, I'm also trying to handle that very carefully and as naturally as possible. I'm hoping that the general female viewership are comfortable with her a lead heroine and that they look forward to seeing where the story takes her as much as the other heroes.''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Flamegirl-290810700</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''The headstrong unofficial leader of our heroes. "Stephanie" is normally a very level-headed and straightforward kind of girl, sweet and caring towards her friends...but the mention of hackers sets her temper ablaze. Her experiences with the various malicious TOME players who previously sought The Forbidden Power has swept her into a vendetta against them. Any threat to her team, and the game that brought them together, she won't stand for. She battles with an array of searing fire attacks.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Flamegirl-S2-478706820</ref>
===Season 1===
Flamegirl first appears in [[You Gotta Virus]] where she is talking to Gamecrazed and awaits the arrival of the rest of her friends. Alpha and [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] finally arrive and they all begin to discuss plans on how they'll deal with the hackers who keep ravaging TOME.
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.
She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the [[Forbidden Power]] took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Her apparent love interest, the two are quite close. She is impressed by the sheer power and confidence Alpha exerts while using the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': The two seem to be close friends, but due to both being close to Alpha, they also appear to have a rivalry for his friendship, they often get into fights and arguments and seem to disagree a lot about things.
*'''[[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]''': Flamegirl knows more about Nylocke's true personality than any of the others, due to the fact that she was online when he logged on drunk one day.
*'''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': The two have not interacted very much.
*'''[[Saturndiva (TOME)|Saturndiva]]''' & '''[[Whyti (TOME)|Whyti]]''': They are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of [[;Mechcity]].
===Enemies===
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Like the rest of her group, she often fights hackers together with her friends.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': Though Flamegirl has dismissed him several times, and regards him as a stalker with clear distain, Neomutant still pursues her affection, going as far as to join TOME as a hacker to protect her from Alpha.
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': Flamegirl, along with Alpha, approached her age-old Hacker enemy towards the end of [[You've Gotta Virus]]. This was when she first saw the Forbidden Power within Alpha.
==Abilities==
*'''Flame Bullet''': A rapid projectile attack that allows the user to shoot small blasts of fire from their fingers.
*'''Rocket Burn''': A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. This move can also be turned into a spinning attack.
*'''Angry Burst''': A short-range but forceful attack made of concentrated flames.
*'''Sun Bomb''': A chargable projectile attack that moves slowly but causes a greater explosion upon impact.
*'''The Anti-Virus''': A purple flame that acts as a vaccine against the Forbidden Power, which she unknowningly obtained from [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] in [[Highest Form of Flattery]].
==Trivia==
* Flamegirl's ID number is 008-974-659.

'''Flamegirl''', sometimes called "Flamey" (born Stephanie Basco), is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] in TOME, a [[Spellcaster]] with the power of fire. Unbeknownst to her, the antivirus program - or "Purple Flame" - to cure the Forbidden Power had been attached to her character model in [[Highest Form of Flattery]], which was the power source of the Dragon Bug. This made her the only person able to stop the Power's influence on [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]], and later put her in risk of brain death when the Purple Flame was used by [[Rubirules (TOME)|Rubirules]] to try and control SOFDTI.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''I knew her design would be staying relatively the same, but even that was tough. I fine-tuned her outfit a little, shortened her wings and gave her a matching tail...and the hair. Ohhh the hair. Even the cut that I eventually settled on proved to be difficult to manage, since drawing her little fire-loopy things that hang down turned out to be a major pain in the ass; maybe they won't be for long.
''Once I had her design in place, next came her personality. Flamey was the only of the main five characters I actually held private voiceover auditions for. Ultimately, at the advice of many people I trusted, I went with newcomer Anna Kingsley, who I think has been doing quite well so far and has been growing as an actress over the course of the series along with her character. I wanted to go with a fairly unique sound and Anna's voice, being relatively new to the scene, was a good fit.
''In terms of writing her dialogue, to this day I'm still a little shaky on what works for her or not. Going into the series, I knew I wanted to exaggerate Alpha's shyness, Kirbopher's anger and Nylocke's over-the-topness, while taking Gamecrazed's original snark and dryness and dividing it up amongst Kirb and Flamegirl. I consider Flamey to be the most "normal" of the main five; the most like a typical teenager/young woman (I peg her at about 18-19 or so) and therefore, the unofficial "leader" of the gang. Nylocke acts as such, especially when leading them against the hacker threat, but because he's so caught up in his character, Flamey is the intellect behind his muscle.
''In terms of her "budding romance" with Alpha, I'm also trying to handle that very carefully and as naturally as possible. I'm hoping that the general female viewership are comfortable with her a lead heroine and that they look forward to seeing where the story takes her as much as the other heroes.''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Flamegirl-290810700</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''The headstrong unofficial leader of our heroes. "Stephanie" is normally a very level-headed and straightforward kind of girl, sweet and caring towards her friends...but the mention of hackers sets her temper ablaze. Her experiences with the various malicious TOME players who previously sought The Forbidden Power has swept her into a vendetta against them. Any threat to her team, and the game that brought them together, she won't stand for. She battles with an array of searing fire attacks.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Flamegirl-S2-478706820</ref>
===Season 1===
Flamegirl first appears in [[You Gotta Virus]] where she is talking to Gamecrazed and awaits the arrival of the rest of her friends. Alpha and [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] finally arrive and they all begin to discuss plans on how they'll deal with the hackers who keep ravaging TOME.
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.
She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the [[Forbidden Power]] took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': Her apparent love interest, the two are quite close. She is impressed by the sheer power and confidence Alpha exerts while using the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': The two seem to be close friends, but due to both being close to Alpha, they also appear to have a rivalry for his friendship, they often get into fights and arguments and seem to disagree a lot about things.
*'''[[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]''': Flamegirl knows more about Nylocke's true personality than any of the others, due to the fact that she was online when he logged on drunk one day.
*'''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': The two have not interacted very much.
*'''[[Saturndiva (TOME)|Saturndiva]]''' & '''[[Whyti (TOME)|Whyti]]''': They are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of [[;Mechcity]].
===Enemies===
*'''[[Hacker|Hackers]]''': Like the rest of her group, she often fights hackers together with her friends.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': Though Flamegirl has dismissed him several times, and regards him as a stalker with clear distain, Neomutant still pursues her affection, going as far as to join TOME as a hacker to protect her from Alpha.
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': Flamegirl, along with Alpha, approached her age-old Hacker enemy towards the end of [[You've Gotta Virus]]. This was when she first saw the Forbidden Power within Alpha.
==Abilities==
*'''Flame Bullet''': A rapid projectile attack that allows the user to shoot small blasts of fire from their fingers.
*'''Rocket Burn''': A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. This move can also be turned into a spinning attack.
*'''Angry Burst''': A short-range but forceful attack made of concentrated flames.
*'''Sun Bomb''': A chargable projectile attack that moves slowly but causes a greater explosion upon impact.
*'''The Anti-Virus''': A purple flame that acts as a vaccine against the Forbidden Power, which she unknowningly obtained from [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] in [[Highest Form of Flattery]].

'''Gamecrazed''', often referred to as "GC," is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]]. He is [[Morphological]] class with the power of shadow. He is a very quiet character, avoiding conversation whenever possible. He is closest to Nylocke out of all the other main characters. It was revealed in the season 2 finale that GC was the "shadow" of [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]], the artificial intelligence that TOME ran on. His screen name was actually the password to the door which protects the room in which SOFDTI sleeps deep within [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (series game)|TOME]].
==Appearance==
==Personality==
Gamecrazed generally appears as a very quiet, collected, and polite individual. A few times, characters have also described him as nice. He tends to stick with himself and often replies with a simple "hm" when spoken to in a conversation.
Whenever meeting in public is brought up between the gang, he usually tries to change the topic and usually appears uncomfortable with it. Since GC is revealed to be the "shadow" of SOFDTI in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], he knows he can't meet them in real life and thus won't talk about meeting them in real life.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''With [[Gamecrazed (TTA)|that]] in mind, changing GC in the way I did for TOME was actually a lot of pressure. In very early stages I envisioned him being the same as he was before (complete with [[Gamecrasher (TTA)|Gamecrasher]], who never got a redesign for the new series), but as I continued developing the dynamic of the main characters, I decided it would be better to make a few changes to GC.
''His design remained intact, with my only addition being the little control pad in place of a belly-button. I stripped GC of his sarcasm and attitude and gave it to Kirb, mainly because Kirb and Alpha's personalities were running a bit too close to each other. I amped up Alpha's shyness, gave Kirb an [sic] attitude and then focused on how Gamecrazed should be. I went with the "strong silent type" for GC as it proved to be better for the group dynamic.
''I had run into problems with TTA in that many of the main characters' personalities were way too similar. Granted, this can be the case with groups of friends that all think like-minded, but it's not interesting from a writing or entertainment perspective. My thought process for when GC talks in TOME is only when he is asked to respond (to show that he's trying to be as polite as possible) or speaks up of his own accord when it's of any importance.
''I think at first, people were either bored with him, or just didn't get exactly where he was coming from. [[Mansion Midnight|Episode 02]] helped shed some light on how good of an individual he is, then by the time [[Fraggedquest|Episode 04]] came out, it seemed like everyone "gets" him now. If there's one thing I regret, it's that I think I've made him come off as being invincible. He isn't, but I can see where people get that impression; I portray him more as just being very intelligent and strategic in every move he makes, but even he can't overcome someone that's just flat-out stronger than he is. I hope he'll continue to grow on people.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Gamecrazed-305764611</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''The silent-but-deadliest one of the group. Gamecrazed speaks up and takes action only when it is necessary, but our heroes know that he is a trustworthy and caring friend. He is also one of, if not THE most, skilled players in all of TOME. Much about GC's thoughts are kept mysterious, even to his arguably closest friend, Nylocke. The others respect his need to keep secrets, but there's always an air of intrigue surrounding his intentions. He battles by transforming into shadows and casting spells with dark energy.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Gamecrazed-S2-478707099</ref>
=== Season 1 ===
=== Season 2 ===
== Abilities ==
* '''Shadow Slash:''' A cutting attack, made from a slice of concentrated dark energy.
* '''Dark Bomb:''' Concentrated dark energy formed into an explosive ball that can be shot from the user's palm.
* '''Black Hand:''' The user temporarily transforms into a giant hand to perform more powerful physical attacks.
* '''Violet Thorn:''' The user wraps themselves around an enemy and squeezes, creating a flower-like pattern of spikes that protrude outward. This technique may risk damage to the user.
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Gamecrazed (TOME)/Gallery]]</big>''
==Trivia==
*Gamecrazed's ID number is 001-234-567. Strangely enough, in ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]'', his ID number is different. [[SOFDTI (TOME)|SOFDTI]], being the core of the game, likely chose this number when she created her character because she had seven parents, and probably manipulated the lottery in [[Year One]] so that her friends could meet them.
*Gamecrazed was the first owner of the [[Drain Edge]], which was given to him by [[Asterob (TOME)|Asterob]] in [[Mansion Midnight]]. He later gave the Drain Edge to Nylocke in [[Dragon Drama]], who subsequently used it to seal away the [[Forbidden Power]] during the events of [[The Warring Demons]].
*Gamecrazed's shoulder pads have the letters L and R, supposedly meaning "left" and "right". However, the right pad is on his left shoulder and the left pad is on his right shoulder, probably due to the fact that his body is mimicking a game system, where the users right is the systems left.
*By Nylocke's admission in [[Secret of the Netkings]], Gamecrazed is stronger than all the other main characters, and may well be the best player of TOME. This is likely because Gamecrazed is the avatar of the game's core.
*Gamecrazed has never been shown logging in or out via the walls of TOME's world. Whenever he leaves, he usually just vanishes into the ground. A notable exception, however, is when the Netkings forcibly log the group out from HOME in [[Secret of the Netkings]] with a logout beam (although it is likely that Gamecrazed simply escaped back to the game's core before the beam was fired).
*Since the introduction of SOFDTI, several events hinted that Gamecrazed and SOFDTI were the same entity before the connection was officially confirmed during the events of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]].
**Both characters struggle with having relationships with other people and have to learn what friendship means.
**The two have similar designs: SOFDTI is pink while GC is purple, both have protrusions from their backs (although SOFDTI's are wings), both have similar face shapes, both have a rounded object on their forehead (SOFDTI's is an eye), and both have slime-like arms. Also, Gamecrazed's body type is notably feminine.
**In [[Mansion Midnight]], Gamecrazed knew exactly where the Mansion was and that there were plans to raid it that night. SOFDTI, as the game's program, would have knowledge of new constructions in the game. They were also able to easily render the hole that Splat left in the wall with no apparent use of tools or programs.
**Starting in [[Fraggedquest]], Gamecrazed states that he "just can't" meet with the others outside of the game, and always becomes uncomfortable when the subject is brought up. SOFDTI, being the game's program, cannot possibly meet the players outside of the game.
**When the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] possesses Alpha in [[Awaken the Beast]], Gamecrazed immediately recognizes the danger and tells the others to getaway. He is equally surprised when he finds that [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] has defeated Alpha. SOFDTI, as the Power's creator, would know the full extent of its power.
**In [[Dragon Drama]], even before [[The Warring Demons]], it is hinted at that Gamecrazed is aware of [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]'s [[Zetto (TOME)|alter ego]], as Kirbopher tells GC he needs advice on "approaching the others about-" before he is cut off by Nylocke. From the recent events of [[Awaken the Beast]], it can be easily assumed that he is asking for advice on making up with Alpha and Flamegirl, however, he could also be speaking about revealing to them his true identity. Throughout the same episode, Gamecrazed is constantly showing that he knows everyone's emotions, although he does say (although he could be lying) he is unaware of what Flamegirl or Alpha thinks about Kirbopher's earlier actions. When fighting [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]]/[[Kizuna (TOME)|Kizuna]] (whom he has known since she joined the [[Netking Software|Netkings]]), he tells her to "Just try and kill me. You'll find it... impossible." It is known (by Zetto telling Alpha in ''The Warring Demons'') that the Forbidden Power cannot be deleted; and programs cannot be "killed" anyway. This loans more indications that the Forbidden Power being destroyed would harm SOFDTI as well, or vice versa. In this case, Gamecrazed would really be telling Kizuna that she can never destroy her or the Forbidden Power.
**Episode 10 reveals that Gamecrazed knows of Kirbopher's [[Zetto (TOME)|secret]]. SOFDTI, having interacted with Zetto in the past, could know this.
**Gamecrazed refuses to go with the others on the infiltration mission in [[The Infiltration Mission]]. Nylocke is visibly shocked when he hears why. SOFDTI may have known that something might happen to her if the Forbidden Power is destroyed, or if the hackers get a hold of her power.
***Gamecrazed's explanation to Nylocke isn't heard, and it's never specified anywhere in the series.
**Gamecrazed and SOFDTI share the same voice actor, Casey Mongillo.
*The ''TV TOME Adventures'' version of Gamecrazed was voiced by Gregory Prytyka Jr. He made a cameo as the voice of Gamecrazed in the [[April Fools Special]].
*In [[Tears. Truth. Ambition.]], the password to SOFDTI's part of the world is GAMECRAZED.

'''Foreva & Anneva''' are the announcers for the [[Gemini Tournament]]. Anneva observes from the booth while Foreva does live commentary in the [[Balanstadium]] arena. Although Anneva is rather laid back and official, Foreva is hyperactive and excited for everything. She also manages to slip in references to TV and games throughout her commentary. This actually irks [[Saturndiva (TOME)|Saturndiva]] to the point that she grabs Foreva and jumps off the edge of the Balanstadium arena with her during a match.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''While Foreva and Anneva, as I retitled her, serve a similar purpose, I wanted to give them a bit more substance and a LOT more fun. They're both heavily inspired by the Dark Tournament announcers Koto and Juri from Yu Yu Hakusho, both of which were really memorable and funny characters from that show. Anneva, as the more cool and collected of the two, was placed up in the stands to announce matches and move things along between fights in a relaxed area. Foreva, being the more peppy and energetic of the two, would be placed in the heat of the action to provide a play-by-play of each match.
''They're also meant to be a commentary on tropes the game industry likes to utilize like "booth babes" and the like for press events; not in a malicious way, mind you, but spinning it into a cartoony exaggeration. Both girls were super fun to draw and animate. I really loved their designs and tried to do some interesting things with the whole Yin & Yang theme, as well as with their hair and how their colors complemented each other. Even when characters exist in a series only to serve a very specific purpose, if they're unique and entertaining they can still be lasting in the viewers' mind. I hope people liked these two and got a few laughs from their "antics"; they're some new personal favorites of mine!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Anneva-and-Foreva-398763880</ref>

'''You've Gotta Virus''' is the first episode of ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]''.
==Summary==
'''From the TOME Website:'''
''It’s the year 2020, where the most popular virtual reality gaming experience, “TOME” is played by millions around the globe. A young player who goes by the username “Alpha” logs in for a good time, but gets more than he bargained for.''
''While his friends are busy trying to stop a couple of rambunctious hackers disrupting their playtime, Alpha is visited by a strange, ethereal being that speaks directly to his thoughts…though it may appear dangerous, it might just be the key to stopping the hacker threat and allow Alpha to help his friends in need.''
==Plot==
==Trivia==
*The title of this episode has a hidden meaning that goes unnoticed until the very end of the first season. It is during episode ten that we learn that the Forbidden Power (which Alpha first encounters and recieves in this episode) is a computer virus. Thus, in ''You've Gotta Virus'', Alpha actually does, in a way, "get a virus," the virus being the Forbidden Power.
*At the time of its original release, the scene with Nylocke and his anti-hacker group had SaturnDiva and Elescope in the scene, but because they did not have their current voice actors at that point in time, two other actors voiced them in the ''You've Gotta Virus, ''but in the reduxed version of the first episode, Mike Hecht and Sarah Williams both take on their roles as Elescope and Saturndiva respectively. The original version can be found on Newgrounds while the current version can be found on Youtube and Chris Niosi's website.

'''Doubling''' is a [[Morphological]] class [[hacker]] with the power of Morphing Slime. He is one of the first two hackers to appear in the series, along with [[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]].
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''This time around, I kept the same basic idea of these two characters' but gave them a serious upgrade in terms of comedy and flare, especially in thanks to the dynamic acting duo of Deven Mack Jr. and Eddie Bosco.
"Rockoon" was not written at first to be a little crazy black guy, but was asked by D-Mac (who for the record, IS African American) in order to help add some dimension to the little psycho...and BOY did it. D-Mac really went over the top with him, adding so many layers to his antics that have already made the character a big favorite among the viewers.
"Doubling" was written as the straight man to Rockoon's crazy...man. I imagined Rockoon as a young kid (younger than Alpha and company) who just happens to be very good with computers but really lets himself go when playing his favorite games. At the same time, his upbringing prevents him from dropping any major curse words and therefore resorts to stuff like "motherscratcher". On the opposite side of things, Doubling makes no bones about being a foul-mouthed asshat with a dry sense of wit and a hint of sniveling cowardice. The two made for a great pair of villains to start things off with and Alpha really showed 'em what for...although I have a feeling we'll be seeing them again.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Doubling-269221291</ref>
===Season 1===
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Doubling is a very foul-mouthed person, swearing frequently even if he is not particularly frustrated. He states that he has no interest in video games, only joining TOME to work for [[D-Buggers.org]], though he does note, after destroying a player, that he found the experience to be oddly satisfying. He only agrees to the job because he is low on money and D-Buggers.org are willing to pay if he helps them. Doubling is stated to have an interest in sports.
==Relationships==
* '''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': Doubling and Rockoon are the first hackers introduced in the TOME series, and work together to try and obtain the "ultimate power". Doubling is considerably less enthusiastic about this task than Rockoon, who he finds to be quite irritating. After Alpha scares off Doubling with the Forbidden Power, he abandons Rockoon, only to return to him later under the guise of a new account, Skeight. After Rockoon repeatedly refuses to be friends with "[[Skeight (TOME)|Skeight]]," Doubling quits again, but not before revealing his identity to Rockoon by saying "motherscratcher." Whether he will make up with Rockoon remains to be seen.
* '''[[Splat (TOME)|Splat]]''': After Alpha scares off Doubling with the Forbidden Power, Doubling recommends Splat as a replacement hacker to D-Buggers.org. Although they never actually meet in the world of TOME, they are brother and sister in real life.
* '''[[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]''': When Doubling fights Alpha in the first episode, he is hurt by the Forbidden Power. This causes him to abandon Rockoon and retreat, before quitting his job as a hacker.
==Abilities==
* '''Slime Wall''': A defensive technique in which the user transforms into a giant blockade to prevent enemies from moving.
* '''Workout''': The user temporarily increases their muscle mass and ups the power of normal physical attacks.
* '''Flying Fist''': A projectile technique in which the user throws pieces of their own body as punches. The fists can regenerate when attached back to the user's body.
==Trivia==
* In the short Hackers, Rockoon refers to Doubling as "BlingBling." This is a reference to the version of Doubling's character from TvTome Adventures, who was named BlingBling.
* Doubling's appearance in episode 1 after Alpha absorbs all of his slime is a throwback to Doubling's original appearance in TvTome Adventures. Ironically, Doubling dislikes this appearance, calling himself a "beanpole."
* It was revealed in the TOME bloopers that since Edward Bosco was aware that all the supposed swears in his lines were to be censored in the final product, he actually never swore a single time when his voice was recorded for Doubling, saying less offensive and sometimes unrelated words instead.

'''Asterob''' is a minor character in [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]] who works as a programmer for [[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]]. He is of the [[Fighter]] class with the power of reflection.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''So, considering it was impossible to tell [[Rob* (TTA)|he]] was British at all, I decided to extrapolate on that and make it his focal point. I turned the dial up on his sheepishness way up and ended up with something quite endearing. “Asterob” (which is a cross between Asterisk + Rob) with his new look and personality was very heavily inspired by his new voice, Lawrence “MasakoX” Simpson, who we all often pick on for being the most overly-apologetic-yet-adorable Brit.
''Some of Rob’s new visual things I had come up with prior to casting, but the hat and glasses were definitely last-minute additions inspired by Masako to add to the timidness. His role this time wasn’t so different from TTA either: a programmer sub-contracted by the administrators to design and oversee production on the mansion built for [[;Lavendera]]. Since our heroes were able to find this “secret” under-construction area without much trouble, I chalked it up to Rob’s general clumsiness. This is one character revamp I’m proud of more so than the others.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Asterob-277574037</ref>
===Season 1===
Asterob first appears in [[Mansion Midnight]], during which he is working on completing the Mansion for the Webmaster. [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] and [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] encounter him in the Mansion while trailing [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]], who had entered the Mansion earlier. Asterob timidly demands that they leave, as the Mansion wasn't supposed to be accessed by any players yet. When Kirbopher and Nylocke refuse and start fighting, he reluctantly fights back using a shield that gradually stores up energy before releasing it in a powerful blast (which accidentally breaks a hole in one of the Mansion's walls). Before he could convince the two to leave, [[Splat (TOME)|Splat]] invades the mansion and captures Nylocke and Kirbopher, demanding that Asterob hand over the beta weapons in his possession, which have capabilities similar to his shield. Gamecrazed, who had been hiding elsewhere in the Mansion, then attacks Splat and throws her from the Mansion, before using his abilities to fix the hole in the Mansion's wall. As thanks, Asterob gives him the [[Drain Edge]]. He then pleads for the players to leave the Mansion, which they do.
Asterob briefly appears in [[Fraggedquest]], where he attempts to help [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] and Gamecrazed find the feet of the [[Shadow Guard Idol]].
Asterob next appears during [[Gemini Tournament Yin]] and [[Gemini Tournament Yang]], where he participates in the Gemini Tournament with [[Sniperwheel (TOME)|Sniperwheel]]. The duo face [[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]] and [[Dustbunny (TOME)|Dustbunny]] in the first round, during which Dustbunny fills the arena with smoke, allowing her to take Asterob's shield right from him. She and Neomutant then abandon the arena, allowing Asterob and Sniperwheel to win by forfeit and leaving Asterob without a weapon.
The quarterfinal round in the Gemini tournament, against two unnamed fighters, is won single-handedly by Sniperwheel, leaving Asterob very upset about the loss of his shield. It is just at that instant that the shield is thrown back into the arena by [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]], allowing him to participate in the upcoming semifinal round against Nylocke and Gamecrazed.
At the beginning of the round, Sniperwheel tells Asterob to "let a real man handle this one," which infuriates Asterob. He removes his hat, glasses, and tie, telling Nylocke that "there's only room for one Brit to be at the top!" However, he loses when the recoil from his shield's Drain Beam sends him off the edge of the tournament platform, defeating him instantly.
Asterob appears briefly during the credits sequence of Episode 9, standing atop a building in [[;Mechcity]] in his new outfit.
===Season 2===
Asterob again appears briefly at the beginning of [[The Infiltration Mission]], standing atop the Mansion and looking worriedly at the dark clouds filling the sky.
==Personality==
Asterob comes across as being slightly nervous and wary of other players. He is especially afraid of disappointing the Webmaster, who hired him to program and design certain parts of TOME, such as the Mansion. Despite his nervous tendencies, he's rather nice and friendly towards people he knows he can trust.
He is of English origin, and makes this very clear by using phrases such as "bloody hell" or "crums" when annoyed or distressed.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': When Kirbopher and Nylocke follow Gamecrazed in [[Mansion Midnight]] to learn more about him, they stumble upon the unfinished mansion. Asterob tells them to leave, and engages in combat with them when they refuse to leave. This fight is put to an end by Splat's assault on the mansion.
* '''[[Nylocke (TOME|Nylocke]]''': When Kirbopher and Nylocke follow Gamecrazed in E[[Mansion Midnight]] to learn more about him, they stumble upon the unfinished mansion. Asterob tells them to leave, and engages in combat with them when they refuse to leave. This fight is put to an end by Splat's assault on the mansion.
* '''[[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': After the mansion is attacked and damaged by Splat, Gamecrazed fights her off and fixes the damage done to the building. To thank him for this, Asterob gives Gamecrazed the [[Drain Edge]], a beta item not yet available to other players.
* '''[[Sniperwheel (TOME)|Sniperwheel]]''': In the Gemini Tournament, Asterob competes with Sniperwheel as his partner. It is unknown how or when the two became partners.
* '''[[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]]''': Asterob works for Webmaster and appears to be his chief graphic designer, as [[ChaseAce (TOME)|ChaseAce]] specifically asks for him in Episode 11 to clean up the mess left by [[Odboll (TOME)|Odboll]] in [[;Sanctuary]].
===Enemies===
==Abilities==
*'''Boomerang Shield''': A projectile attack in which the user throws their shield. It will return to them like a boomerang.
*'''Shove''': A charging attack that can push the opponent back great distances.
*'''Bomball''': Small bombs that can be thrown in succession.
*'''Drain Beam''': A powerful attack that is built up by energy absorbed from enemy attacks, then releases a beam that covers the entire length of the battlefield.
==Trivia==
*Asterob's name is a cross between the words "Asterisk" and "Rob." This is a reference to the original user's name from TvTome Adventures, which was "Rob*"(pronounced as Rob-Star) .
*Asterob's original design was modified to give him a hat and glasses. This was done to make him look more like his voice actor, Lawrence Simpson. Ironically, Asterob removes these items during the semifinal round of the Gemini tournament to show that he refuses to sit back and let someone else fight for him.

However, he loses when the recoil from his shield's Drain Beam sends him off the edge of the tournament platform, defeating him instantly.
Asterob appears briefly during the credits sequence of Episode 9, standing atop a building in [[;Mechcity]] in his new outfit.
===Season 2===
Asterob again appears briefly at the beginning of [[The Infiltration Mission]], standing atop the Mansion and looking worriedly at the dark clouds filling the sky.
==Personality==
Asterob comes across as being slightly nervous and wary of other players. He is especially afraid of disappointing the Webmaster, who hired him to program and design certain parts of TOME, such as the Mansion. Despite his nervous tendencies, he's rather nice and friendly towards people he knows he can trust.
He is of English origin, and makes this very clear by using phrases such as "bloody hell" or "crums" when annoyed or distressed.

'''Asterob''' is a minor character in [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]] who works as a programmer for [[Webmaster (TOME)|Webmaster]]. He is of the [[Fighter]] class with the power of reflection.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''So, considering it was impossible to tell [[Rob* (TTA)|he]] was British at all, I decided to extrapolate on that and make it his focal point. I turned the dial up on his sheepishness way up and ended up with something quite endearing. “Asterob” (which is a cross between Asterisk + Rob) with his new look and personality was very heavily inspired by his new voice, Lawrence “MasakoX” Simpson, who we all often pick on for being the most overly-apologetic-yet-adorable Brit.
''Some of Rob’s new visual things I had come up with prior to casting, but the hat and glasses were definitely last-minute additions inspired by Masako to add to the timidness. His role this time wasn’t so different from TTA either: a programmer sub-contracted by the administrators to design and oversee production on the mansion built for [[;Lavendera]]. Since our heroes were able to find this “secret” under-construction area without much trouble, I chalked it up to Rob’s general clumsiness. This is one character revamp I’m proud of more so than the others.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Asterob-277574037</ref>
===Season 1===
Asterob first appears in [[Mansion Midnight]], during which he is working on completing the Mansion for the Webmaster. [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] and [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] encounter him in the Mansion while trailing [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]], who had entered the Mansion earlier. Asterob timidly demands that they leave, as the Mansion wasn't supposed to be accessed by any players yet. When Kirbopher and Nylocke refuse and start fighting, he reluctantly fights back using a shield that gradually stores up energy before releasing it in a powerful blast (which accidentally breaks a hole in one of the Mansion's walls). Before he could convince the two to leave, [[Splat (TOME)|Splat]] invades the mansion and captures Nylocke and Kirbopher, demanding that Asterob hand over the beta weapons in his possession, which have capabilities similar to his shield. Gamecrazed, who had been hiding elsewhere in the Mansion, then attacks Splat and throws her from the Mansion, before using his abilities to fix the hole in the Mansion's wall. As thanks, Asterob gives him the [[Drain Edge]]. He then pleads for the players to leave the Mansion, which they do.
Asterob briefly appears in [[Fraggedquest]], where he attempts to help [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] and Gamecrazed find the feet of the [[Shadow Guard Idol]].
Asterob next appears during [[Gemini Tournament Yin]] and [[Gemini Tournament Yang]], where he participates in the Gemini Tournament with [[Sniperwheel (TOME)|Sniperwheel]]. The duo face [[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]] and [[Dustbunny (TOME)|Dustbunny]] in the first round, during which Dustbunny fills the arena with smoke, allowing her to take Asterob's shield right from him. She and Neomutant then abandon the arena, allowing Asterob and Sniperwheel to win by forfeit and leaving Asterob without a weapon.
The quarterfinal round in the Gemini tournament, against two unnamed fighters, is won single-handedly by Sniperwheel, leaving Asterob very upset about the loss of his shield. It is just at that instant that the shield is thrown back into the arena by [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]], allowing him to participate in the upcoming semifinal round against Nylocke and Gamecrazed.
At the beginning of the round, Sniperwheel tells Asterob to "let a real man handle this one," which infuriates Asterob. He removes his hat, glasses, and tie, telling Nylocke that "there's only room for one Brit to be at the top!" However, he loses when the recoil from his shield's Drain Beam sends him off the edge of the tournament platform, defeating him instantly.
Asterob appears briefly during the credits sequence of Episode 9, standing atop a building in [[;Mechcity]] in his new outfit.

Bitshrum is Netking Number 2 of TOME. He is the game's area and background designer, responsible for creating ;Lavendera, ;Mechcity, and ;Sanctuary.

''Netking #2, head of environment design. The creation of TOME's three regions ([[;Lavendera]], [[;MechCity]] and [[;Sanctuary]]) were overseen by him. Bitshrum comes off as a bit of a show-off, but he's actually just a big goofball. His enthusiasm is always 100%, whether it's his excitement about the game he worked so hard on or a chance to finally face off with the players using his unique powers. He battles by summoning a variety of boxes that hold different properties, including ones that hold dangerous items inside!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Bitshrum-S2-487195119</ref>

*Bitshrum's design is based off of the original design of the Super Mushroom from the NES title, Super Mario Bros. His design is overall based off of Super Mario Bros, most noted with his stage, and the ability to create blocks that spawn fire-breathing mushrooms.
**These, in turn, reference the Fire Flower in the Mario series and the variants of the Pirhana Plant enemy that shoot fireballs.
**His design can also be seen as a nod to Split Mushroom, a boss in the Megaman X games. This can be seen with his orange and green color scheme.

'''Foreva & Anneva''' are the announcers for the [[Gemini Tournament]]. Anneva observes from the booth while Foreva does live commentary in the [[Balanstadium]] arena. Although Anneva is rather laid back and official, Foreva is hyperactive and excited for everything. She also manages to slip in references to TV and games throughout her commentary. This actually irks [[Saturndiva (TOME)|Saturndiva]] to the point that she grabs Foreva and jumps off the edge of the Balanstadium arena with her during a match.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''While Foreva and Anneva, as I retitled her, serve a similar purpose, I wanted to give them a bit more substance and a LOT more fun. They're both heavily inspired by the Dark Tournament announcers Koto and Juri from Yu Yu Hakusho, both of which were really memorable and funny characters from that show. Anneva, as the more cool and collected of the two, was placed up in the stands to announce matches and move things along between fights in a relaxed area. Foreva, being the more peppy and energetic of the two, would be placed in the heat of the action to provide a play-by-play of each match.
''They're also meant to be a commentary on tropes the game industry likes to utilize like "booth babes" and the like for press events; not in a malicious way, mind you, but spinning it into a cartoony exaggeration. Both girls were super fun to draw and animate. I really loved their designs and tried to do some interesting things with the whole Yin & Yang theme, as well as with their hair and how their colors complemented each other. Even when characters exist in a series only to serve a very specific purpose, if they're unique and entertaining they can still be lasting in the viewers' mind. I hope people liked these two and got a few laughs from their "antics"; they're some new personal favorites of mine!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Anneva-and-Foreva-398763880</ref>

==A2Z Version==
On the remastered version from [[TOME: A2Z]] compilation movie "2 Lives", the scene where Zetto eliminates two players has the players replaced by two characters from the franchise's predecessor series ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV Tome Adventures]]'', [[Anidoug]] and [[Phaxal]].

'''Ravenfreak''' is a hacker with sadomasochistic tendencies who works for [[D-Buggers.org]] in a single episode of TOME. He is an illusionist who can transform into a bird and disguise himself as any player he wishes. He is also very good at imitating the copied player's voice. Ravenfreak was given the anti-virus and instructed to attach it to [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]], which he did successfully.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''I find gender-ambiguous characters really intriguing. I say that, knowing full well that I intended Ravenfreak to be male, yet something was oddly fun about making him so effeminate and camp. Since his whole gimmick was disguising himself as others, I thought the stereotypical "actwaaah" approach this time around would really suit him...and boy did it.
''I had the fortunate pleasure of working with Lucien Dodge, one of the strongest actors I know, on not only Ravenfreak's voice, but a near-perfect match of Blake's voice for Alpha. I knew going into it that in order to even REMOTELY get people to buy that a doppelganger could work in a semi-realistic setting would be for the one masquerading to be a very, very convincing actor, so much so that you could mistake the real thing for them. I'd like to hope this came across well enough and people bought it. Either way, what people really dug was Ravenfreak's true personality beneath the disguise. I tried to go extra creepy with him, to a point of uncomfortability towards the audience, which I think is a really effective way to portray villains. Your audience can sympathize with bad guys, but when they're disturbed by them it's a totally different animal. Ravenfreak was definitely a highlight of working on the first three Episodes of TOME for me.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Ravenfreak-294301690</ref>
===Highest Form of Flattery===
==Personality==
==Relationships==
==Abilities==
*'''Feather Dagger''': Sharp projectiles that can be tosses in waves of three.
*'''Graceful Raid''': A swooping-charge attack performed by the user in mid-air with swift accuracy.
*'''Camouflage Layer''': A defensive technique in which the user disguises themselves in a thick layer of camouflage in order to repel one attack.
*'''Triplicate''': The user creates two temporary copies of themselves to launch multiple attacks at once.
Ravenfreak also has the ability to take the form of other players. He is very skilled at impressions, like when he mimicked Alpha's voice well enough to trick Flamegirl.

'''Infectuation''' is the seventh episode of ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]''.
==Summary==
'''From the TOME Website:'''
''Alpha has logged into TOME for the first time since the last appearance of the Forbidden Power. Flamegirl goes to check on him but is halted when her own issues from the real world converge into the game – in the form of an obsessive romantic pursuer.''
''The stalker turns out to be another hacker on their own mysterious mission, and in the ensuing chaos the worst of the Forbidden Power is revealed. Can Flamey overcome this aggravating amour AND put a stop to Alpha’s reckless rampage? Plus, how does Kirb fit into this mess!?''
==Plot==
==Trivia==
*The crescent and moon-shape headed incidentals, dubbed as "Cresceneel" and "Zunkhadial" by Chris Niosi on his Tumblr, are based off of animators Chris O'Neill and Zach Hadel's self-parodied counterparts from their online series, ''[[w:c:hellbenders:Hellbenders|Hellbenders]]''. O'Neill and Hadel voiced their TOME counterparts.
**According to Niosi, the cameo was essentially a shout-out to the duo for assisting him on critiquing and improving the web series.
*Kirbopher asking Archy if he knows what ''espionage'' is, which Archy questions if he means a ''chameleon'', is a shout-out to Espio the Chameleon from the ''[[w:c:sonic:Sonic_the_Hedgehog|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' video game series.

'''From the TOME Website:'''
''At long last, the much-anticipated Gemini Tournament begins! TOME’s greatest competitive players gather together at Balanstadium, where the final competition is about to begin. Alpha and our heroes have managed to make it to the finals…''
''…but only two valiant players can stand above the rest and earn the shared title of virtual world champion duo!

*First appearance of Webmaster

*First appearance of Anneva
*First appearance of Foreva
*First appearance of Giga (voice only)
*Rockoon (as Rackoon) stating he's a completely different character is a reference to the Blonic video from animator Joe "Ukinojoe" Gran's YouTube channel. Gran would later do guest VO in the short "[[April Fools Special]]".

'''Gemini Tournament Yang''' is the ninth episode of ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]''.
==Summary==
'''From the TOME Website:'''
''The Gemini Tournament continues as the best players in TOME ascend through the ranks and the competition becomes more and more intense. Only the two teams that make it to the finals will have the chance to prove themselves…''
''…but Alpha and Flamegirl may not GET that chance if they don’t make it back to their upcoming match in time! The hackers who infiltrated the tournament roster are plotting something dangerous and winning the championship may be the least of our heroes worries. Whoever DOES make it to the final match may be in for a more bizarre experience than they bargained for.''
==Plot==
The episode begins with [[Dustbunny]] and [[Alpha]] talking about the [[Forbidden Power]]. Dustbunny claims to Alpha that she can tell him more about the Forbidden Power, but only if he shows it to her.
Meanwhile, [[Flamegirl]], who followed Alpha, runs into [[Neomutant]] in the hallway on the way there. He explains to her that she cannot fire her attack in that dust, as it is highly explosive. Flamegirl replies that she doesn't care, and after a bit more talking she punches him and goes past him to where Dustbunny and Alpha are.
Alpha activate the Forbidden Power to use on Dustbunny. However, she had [[Asterob]]'s shield, and used it to absorb the power from Alpha, leaving him gasping on his knees.
At this point, Flamegirl shows up, and threatens to detonate all of the dust if Dustbunny does not get away from Alpha.
Suddenly, the Forbidden Power bursts free from the shield, returning to Alpha and cloaking him. Flamegirl, activating a strange purple fire, calms down Alpha.
Behind them, [[Zetto]] arrives. Stabbing Neomutant through the back, he then powers up his arm and blasts Dustbunny away, proclaiming that no matter what, it is his tournament, and he won't let them ruin it for him. He takes Asterob's shield and leaves, saying he will return it to its owner.
Back at the tournament, Asterobb and Sniperwheel defeat two unnamed opponents, winning their next round. Asterobb complains how he can't do anything, as he lacks his shield, which is shortly returned to him when [[Zetto]] and Kizuna enter the Arena.
Meanwhile, Webmaster and the announcer discuss the tournament, and Webmaster explains that he believes that the tournament will be won by the two players who work the best together in combination.
The fight of Alpha and Flamegirl against Zetto and Kizuna begins. Alpha explains to Flamegirl that he's not nervous anymore. Shortly into the fight, Alpha and Flamegirl appear to have the upper hand, until Flamegirl is shot in the arm by Kizuna. Alpha runs over to check on her, and is shot by both of their opponents. They clasp hands, and go straigh up with their combination attack, and are blasted out of the air by Zetto.
The next match begins, with Sniperwheel and Asterobb against [[Gamecrazed]] and [[Nylocke]]. Asterob surprises his partner by acting assertively, telling Nylocke that there was only room for one 'Brit' at the top. After some more bantering, the fight begins.
After some battling, Sniperwheel charges his cannon and fires at them. They dodge, but Asterobb absorbs the attack behind them, and fires it back.
Gamecrazed, transforming into a giant hand, holds back the blast, until Asterobb unknowingly pushes himself off the edge of the arena, leaving Sniperwheel to fend for himself. He is quickly smacked off the arena by Gamecrazed, and the two advance towards the final match.
The announcer asks Webmaster for any thoughts on the tournament, who says he will hold off any commentary for the upcoming round.
The final match begins. Gamecrazed and Nylocke both succesfully negate their opponents opening attacks, and the fighting begins in earnest. The teams are fairly evenly matched.
Nylocke begins talking to Zetto about the joy of [[Terrain of Magical Expertise|TOME]], and how he wants to hear stories from Zetto about his time playing. Zetto, agitated about his carefree attitude in the middle of a match, fires on Nylocke, who spins his blade to block all of the shots. Nylocke begins to prance about and sing. Zetto, reaching his limit, starts yelling at Nylocke, criticizing him for viewing the game as a coping mechanism.
Aiming his palm at Nylocke, Zetto charges up his beam to finish him off. There is a short period of fake buffering, the announcer explains a connection error, and when the arena comes once more into view, Gamecrazed and Kizuna are unconscious, and the [[Drain Edge]] on Nylocke's sword is glowing, implying he had just absorbed Zetto's blast.
Nylocke fires the energy up into the sky, using it to give the audience a show. He approaches Zetto, telling him to remember that it was a game, and that he should lighten up. With a loud 'WHOOSH!', he blasts off into the sky, leaving Zetto and Kizuna the official winners of the tournament. In the aftermath, we see them each holding trophies with half of the taijitu on them.

''…with its rumors now spread amongst other players poised to harass him about its secrets. A certain someone, who knows the true dangers of the Forbidden Power, aims to put an end to its threat against the unsuspecting populous. An incredible fight lies ahead for Alpha, but one of the battle’s two opponents may not walk away alive.''
==Plot==
Alpha recieves a message from Zetto as he logs in, telling him to come to the Gemini Tournament Grounds to lose the virus. Alpha then travels to Mechcity where he meets Nylocke and Flamegirl. After he is knocked

unconscious when Zetto absorbs the forbidden power, he hears a flashback from the real world. We hear people that sound like kids talk about how Alpha was never really a social person and that his real name is michael.
==Trivia==
*At the end of the episode after the credits, we have a glimpse of Sanctuary, the only location in T.O.M.E. not shown before, with several players conversing. Before the depiction ends, the episode shows the Drain Edge (still holding the forbidden power), stuck at the top of a statue of Webmaster, following with a black and white "THE END?" picture, with the question mark flickering like the forbidden power.
*Episode 10 was originally going to be the premiere of Season 2 as opposed to the finale of Season 1. This was changed when Chris Niosi felt that not a lot of people understood the ending of Episode 9 and felt that Episode 10 would make a better finale than a premiere anyways.

'''Year One''' is eleventh episode of ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]''.
==Summary==
'''From the TOME Website:'''
''A year has passed since the public release of the world’s most successful virtual reality game, TOME…and a certain group of brave players have been through an incredible experience during even just a portion of that time. To celebrate, the creators of TOME at Netking Software have chosen to throw a special anniversary event taking place in the <nowiki>;Sanctuary</nowiki> region…''
''…Players from all over the world gather together, hoping to win a contest with a spectacular opportunity as the prize! Little does the game’s populous know…that a dangerous threat is still looming on the horizon.''
==Plot==
The episode begins with a new player, BaileySmith13, entering TOME for the first time, landing in <nowiki>;Sanctuary</nowiki>. She quickly meets another player, named Justin, who is about to show her around when a [[Hacker]] by the name of [[Odboll]] appears and destroys both of their characters. He is about to go on a rampage when [[Flamegirl]], [[Nylocke]], [[Gamecrazed]], and [[Alpha]] appear and attack him. Flamegirl asks him who he was hired by, but he refuses to tell. Three moderators then appear and ban Odboll. Their leader, [[ChaseAce]], mentions that they have to clean everything before the one-year TOME anniversary event the following day. Flamegirl complains to him how the hacker attacks in <nowiki>;Lavendera</nowiki> and <nowiki>;Mechcity</nowiki> have gone unnoticed by the moderators, and ChaseAce tells her to take it up with the moderators of those regions, as he's just doing his job. The group then leaves to go about their business, but not before a familiar [[Kizuna|cat]] is seen watching them...
The scene then jumps to the [[D-Buggers.org]] headquarters in the moon, where Kizuna is presumably trying to locate the [[Drain Edge]], which still contains the [[Forbidden Power]]. [[Zetto]] then logs into the base and has a brief argument with Kizuna about the importance of finding it. Zetto tells Kizuna that he cares just as much about the game as protecting the people in it, and that he is much better prepared than before. He then leaves, leaving Kizuna to her business.
[[File:Zetto_season_2.png|thumb|Zetto's appearance in season 2.]]The next day, Alpha is seen heading to <nowiki>;Sanctuary</nowiki> and is briefly confronted by [[Kirbopher]]. They have a quick battle before Alpha invites Kirbopher to go to the anniversary event with the rest of the gang. Kirbopher meets up with Nylocke and Gamecrazed near the center of <nowiki>;Sanctuary</nowiki>, where the Netking Statues are. Webmaster's assistant, [[Bishipp]], appears on the platform and introduces [[Webmaster]], who appears from the sky as usual. Webmaster thanks the players for joining the game and supporting Netking Software for a year, and mentions how proud he feels seeing all the unique characters around him. Bishipp then announces that the prize giveaways are about to start, and Webmaster asks her to start with a unique quest: a randomly selected player will be allowed to choose up to four other players and go on a quest in TOME's sun to defeat the five Netkings, including Webmaster. If they are victorious, they will be granted one wish within the Netkings' power. Bishipp activates the TOME bingo machine, which selects Gamecrazed, much to his surprise. As the event continues, the camera pans up to show the Drain Edge, still stuck at the top of Webmaster's statue, undisturbed from where it landed at the end of [[The Warring Demons]].
The scene cuts to Alpha and Flamegirl, who are away from the event, sitting on a bench in <nowiki>;Sanctuary</nowiki> and discussing the fun they've had in TOME. Alpha brings up how Flamegirl [[Fraggedquest|once mentioned]] that it'd be cool if the gang met up in real life sometime, and says that since it's the one year anniversary, now would be a good time to start looking into it, and maybe at some point, Alpha could just visit Flamegirl. They are awkwardly interrupted by the rest of the gang, who apparently heard the last few moments of the conversation, and are told about Gamecrazed's prize. Alpha and Flamegirl agree to join the quest and decide to start the next day, as nothing else is really going on. Kirbopher nearly opts out, but Flamegirl convinces him to join.
Meanwhile, Kizuna still cannot locate the Drain Edge, despite her best efforts.
The next day, Gamecrazed's party meets with Bishipp at the Netking Statues to begin the quest. After some brief identification and banter, Bishipp sends the group to HOME (the Heavens Of Magical Expertise) via a beam of light similar to the ones players enter the game through. As a result, the energy from the beam dislodges the Drain Edge from its resting place, and it falls to the ground behind the Webmaster statue, unnoticed by the group and by Bishipp.
The group ends up in a strange area within HOME. They stand on a floating metal platform and the background is filled with pipes and spinning gears. They are greeted by their first Netking foe: [[Execk]] , Netking number five. As each party member is only allowed to fight one Netking each, Alpha volunteers to fight Execk. After a brief but furious battle, Alpha emerges victorious. Execk reveals that he is the easiest of the administrators, so the group decides that Gamecrazed should fight the last one, as he is the most skilled out of all of them and he won the contest in the first place. The group then steps through a portal to their next opponent. [[File:Plot_twist.png|thumb|The surprise twist.]]
The group appears in a landscape similar to <nowiki>;Lavendera</nowiki>, only composed of crystals. Alpha states that something feels different about this area, but he can't figure out what. Kirbopher counters that the [[Netking]] is just putting on a show and that they'll probably appear in a moment with some sort of over-dramatic flair. As if on cue, a large pink crystal rises out of the ground and shatters to reveal the second Netking...Zetto?!
==Trivia==
*Though unintentional, the characters BaileySmith13 and Justin's names are an accidental play on the famous "JUSTIN BAILEY" Metroid password.
*The screen that Kizuna uses to search for the Forbidden Power has text on it that reads:

*According to the audio commentaries, in early stages of development, Episiode 11 was not part of TOME's story - Episode 10 was originally going to be the premiere of Season 2 and the Challenge of the Netkings was going to occur directly after the fight with Demon Zetto. However, when Episode 10 was changed to a season finale as opposed to a Season Premiere, Episode 11 was added to give the characters a new reason for taking the Challenge.

Secret of the Netkings is the twelfth episode of ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]''.
== Summary ==
'''From the TOME Website:'''
''After winning a contest in celebration of TOME’s 1-Year Anniversary, Gamecrazed has brought our heroes along for more than just a simple sidequest! The heroes who defended the Terrain of Magical Expertise against an unseen threat now have the honor of doing battle with the creators of the game: five gifted programmers who call themselves the “Netkings”…''
''…Alpha triumphs over the first of their numerous opponents, but as the fight continues on through the Netkings’ realm in the virtual sun, mysteries of our heroes’ previous trials and tribulations may just unravel. The truth hurts, more than ever.''
== Plot ==
The episode begins where Episode 11 left off, with the Players encountering Zetto(?). Alpha and Nylocke are originally enraged (due to the [[Episode 10: The Warring Demons|incident with Demon Zetto]]), however, the copy Zetto turns out to merely be [[Rubirules]], Netking Number 4, who proceeds to make fun of Zetto's hairstyle, color scheme, and overpowered gun weapon before laughing and admitting to messing with the players.
[[File:Zetto!Rubirules.png|thumb|220x220px|Rubirules makes fun of Zetto]]
Rubirules changes to his true form, prompting Kirbopher (offended by Rubirules making fun of his alter ego) to challenge him. However, Nylocke steps up instead because he feels he needs to avenge Zetto's honor, unaware of Kirbopher's true identity. Nylocke and Rubirules prepare a battlegrid and Rubirules begins to attack Nylocke using Alpha, Flamegirl, and Kirbopher's powers, some that they aren't even capable of using yet (sucg as Poseidon Wave and Zeus Rage simultaneously). Nylocke notes that Rubirules has no powers of his own (other than shapeshifting), before Rubirules reveals that all characters in the game were approved by him and therefore are his power as well. Rubirules then goes on to reveal that the "Nylocke" character model was created by him as a reward for being the 1,111,111th registered player in the game, and that he never expected Nylocke to take his "Dragon Man" persona so far.
[[File:Screen Shot 2014-11-23 at 9.44.58 PM (1).jpg|left|thumb|220x220px|"I shall strike you down, and become more powerful than you could possibly imagine!"]]
Rubirules then takes Nylocke's form and proceeds to jokingly call Nylocke his son due to creating his character model ("Nylocke, I am your father!" is a reference to'' Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back''.). Nylocke retorts by stating that his ''physical ''body was created by Rubirules, but the Dragon Warrior persona was his own invention, before defeating Rubirules's versions of Gamecrazed, Zetto and himself and "striking Rubirules down" in his default form, in which he has no attacks. Nylocke claims victory over Netking Number 4 and the portal to the next room opens, as Flamegirl comments that Rubirules's snark reminded her a lot of Kirb (which he took offense to).
[[File:Screen Shot 2014-11-23 at 9.31.31 PM.jpg|thumb|220x220px|"YOU are just the CUTEST thing I've ever SEEN!"]]
The players proceed to enter [[Kindarspirit]] (Netking #3)'s room, where Alpha remarks that the room looks less threatening and that they may not have to face someone as intimidating this time. Kindarspirit herself then drops down from the heavens and reveals that she is Netking Number 3. Kirb remarks that all the roleplaying from the Netkings is unnecessary and that it's appreciated, but she doesn't have to, causing Kindarspirit to glomp him and show that her true personality is even more bubbly than her false one. Kindarspirit "kidnaps" Kirb, forcing Flamegirl to battle her.
[[File:Screen Shot 2014-11-23 at 9.48.00 PM.jpg|left|thumb|220x220px|ZZzZzzZZZZZZzzzzzZZZZZzzzzZZZ...]]
Flamegirl defeats Kindarspirit using her own weather powers against her, by stuffing her inside one of her own clouds (which Kindarspirit used to capture Kirb earlier) and electrocuting her. Kindarspirit admits defeat, and Flamegirl comments that, once again, Kirb's big mouth did everyone a favor. Kirb sarcastically replies that he's glad to be a scapegoat for everybody (leading to a comment from Nylocke about him resembling a scape-''sheep'' instead) and the five enter the next room.
[[File:Screen Shot 2014-12-30 at 12.00.52 AM.jpg|left|thumb|220x220px|"Go ahead… OPEN THE BOX."]]
[[File:Screen Shot 2014-12-30 at 12.04.08 AM.png|thumb|220x220px|"I AM THE KING!!!"]]
The Five Discuss plans for what they could do should they defeat the Netkings, upon which they decide it might be a good idea to ask them if they could all meet up in real life. Kirbopher remarks that he's sure they'll think of something by the time they reach the end. Suddenly, Netking #2, [[Bitshrum]], appears and tells them all that it IS the end for them, upon which Flamegirl prompts Kirbopher to take him on. Kirbopher defeats Bitshrum by throwing his own boxes back at him (and then jumping on him to score points, a reference to the game ''Super Mario Bros.)'' and proclaims himself to be THE KING, upon which the next portal opens and the five enter Webmaster's room for the final Netking Battle.
Webmaster appears and congratulates the gang on being able to reach him. Gamecrazed takes on Webmaster and wins, prompting him to acknowledge that Gamecrazed is indeed a player of incredible skill. Webmaster summons the other four Netkings, upon which they all reveal their jobs - Bitshrum is head of Environmental Design and created all three of TOME's regions, Kindarspirit is head of the sound department, Rubirules is head of graphic and character design, Execk is head of battle system management and development and Webmaster is lead programmer and system administrator of TOME. The Netkings also reveal that Zetto and Kizuna are unofficially considered to be Netkings #6 and #7, much to Kirb and Alpha's discomfort. Realizing that the Netkings likely know about the Forbidden Power if Zetto worked on creating the game with them, Alpha, enraged, asks the Netkings " Which one of you decided to put the Forbidden Power in the game?". The Forbidden Power itself breaks free of the Drain Edge as a result of Alpha's negativity, forcing the Netkings to log the players out of TOME and let them handle it. Kirbopher logs in as Zetto and confronts Kizuna about what to do next, to which she replies "I need to make a few very important calls".

== Trivia ==
* According to Chris Niosi, the Netkings were originally supposed to be fought in reverse order than they were in this episode (and Episode 11); with [[Webmaster]] being fought first and [[Execk]] being fought last. In addition, the entire Challenge of the Netkings arc was originally going to occur directly after the fight with Demon Zetto when [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] was the Season 2 premiere instead of the Season 1 finale.
* According to Chris Niosi, Kirbopher's loud speech on him being the greatest character is derived from the Cheese character in Nickelodeon's ''"[[w:c:rockosmodernlife:Rocko's Modern Life|Rocko's Modern Life]]'s''" infamous episode, ''"Wacky Deli"''.

'''The Infiltration Mission''' is the thirteenth episode of ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]''.
==Summary==
'''From the TOME Website:'''
''After a triumphant victory over the “Challenge of the Netkings”, our heroes were shocked to learn that the dangerous “Forbidden Power” that has so heavily affected their lives since joining TOME…might in fact be a threat directly tied to the creators of the game! Alpha and the others, left with a thousand more important questions, are expelled from the Heavens of Magical Expertise and are greeted, the next day, to a collection of dark clouds made to hide out the newly-uncovered virus from the public eye…''
''…but they know the truth. Suddenly, some major new information is presented to the group that could change everything. Can our heroes band together and put a damper on their enemy’s plans!?''
==Plot==
[[File:ForbiddenPowerClouds.png|thumb|220x220px|"Attention. It is now 12:00 Noon Pacific Time. We would like to remind all players currently logged in that tonight at midnight we will be temporarily closing down the game for system maintenance…"]]
The episode begins with the Netkings using black clouds to shield the existence of the [[Forbidden Power]], announcing that the game will be temporarily shutting down for maintenance at 12:00 AM pacific time. Meanwhile, [[Rockoon]] is rambling about the end of TOME, and warning players to never come back, as Saturndiva, Whyti, Asterob, Bishipp, and several other players stare worriedly at the sky, wondering what may be in store for them. In [[Lavendera|;Lavendera]], [[Flamegirl]], [[Nylocke]], and [[Alpha]] are discussing what happened the day before, in regard to the incident occurring near the end of the [[Secret of the Netkings|Challenge of the Netkings]]. Alpha, Flamegirl, and Nylocke begin to wonder what the hackers' true motivations are, and if they are truly a force for evil or whether or not they may in fact be trying to do something good. However, before the three can reach a conclusion, [[Neomutant]] approaches the trio to tell them his suspicions about what the hackers had actually been doing, telling them that the one factor they are not considering is him.
[[File:NeomutantShot.png|left|thumb|220x220px|Neomutant's plan]]
Neomutant claims that he originally came to a similar conclusion as Flamegirl and the rest, and that he believed that [[Kizuna|Tigerlilly]], his anonymous benefactor, was seeking out the Forbidden Power to prevent uninformed players from being hurt by it. However, for unknown reasons, he now believes that Tigerlilly and the hackers are attempting to use the Forbidden Power to blackmail the Netkings into meeting their demands, and has a plan to infiltrate their base at midnight to try and "put a stop to this plan". Although Alpha, Flamegirl, and Nylocke are originally hesitant to trust him, they eventually decide to so long as they have a chance to contact a couple friends of theirs first. Neomutant claims that he would allow this so long as said friends ([[Kirbopher]] and [[Gamecrazed]]) fully understand the severity of the situation. Alpha and the others make a plan to meet him at the Tournament Stadium and go their separate ways, to prepare for their upcoming "Infiltration Mission" into the Hacker base.
[[File:Motherscratcha.png|thumb|220x220px|"It was nice knowing ya…Motherscratcha."]]
In ;Mechcity, Rockoon is still rambling about the end of TOME when people begin to identify him as the "slimy rat hacker" who got a "sword up his ass" in the tournament. [[Skeight]] shows up to try and save him, but Rockoon, irritated by Skeight's constant presence, pulls him aside and asks him what he wants. Skeight replies that he wanted to make sure Rockoon was OK, but Rockoon says he's much better off on his own and Skeight finally gives up. Skeight tells Rockoon it was nice knowing him, calling him "Motherscratcha" as a reference to their conversation in Episode 1. Rockoon finally realizes who Skeight is and begins to break down, realizing he just pushed away the person who, for all intents and purposes, amounted to his only friend. Kirbopher, meanwhile, is looking on the whole scene worriedly when he gets a PM from Alpha, telling him to meet him at the park.
[[File:You'reNutsProbably.png|left|thumb|220x220px|"You're Nuts…"
"Probably."
]]
Kirbopher and Alpha have another brief battle before Kirbopher asks Alpha if he wants to round up the others and hang out. Alpha tells Kirbopher about Neomutant's Infiltration Mission plan, but Kirbopher, being Zetto and not wanting to disrupt the hackers' actual goal of containing and erasing the Forbidden Power, tries to goad Alpha into not going and warns him that it might be dangerous and that he might get hurt. Alpha, feeling he needs to go to stop the hackers from doing something bad, ignores him, and Kirbopher tells Alpha that he's nuts. The two fight and go their separate ways, with Kirbopher realizing that before long, he will probably have to fight his friend, causing him much grief.
Nylocke, meanwhile, is trying to persuade Gamecrazed to come along as well, but Gamecrazed tells Nylocke he cannot and
[[File:GC'sSecret.png|left|thumb|228x228px|"Nylocke…I…"]]
explains his reasoning to Nylocke, however, a gust of wind prevents his words from being heard by all except for Nylocke himself. Nylocke says he understands, and proceeds to meet up with Flamegirl and Alpha, who are having a conversation in the back alleyway of ;Mechcity that [[Ravenfreak]] tried to lure Flamey and Alpha to [[Highest Form of Flattery|a while back]]. Alpha asks Flamegirl what the deal is with her and Neomutant, and Flamegirl explains that Neo was her partner in her high school science class her senior year, who got it in his head that Flamegirl having some respect for his computer skills was a signal that she liked him and wanted to start dating him. Flamegirl says she never had any interest in Neo like that, and didn't even know that he played TOME until [[Infectuation|he came after Alpha looking for the virus]]. Flamegirl also remarks, though, that despite all that's happened, she's still glad she started playing TOME because otherwise, she never would've met Alpha. Alpha proceeds to suggest something to Flamegirl when Nye interrupts and shouts that "Sir Gamecrazed isn't joining us!" (which causes Flamegirl and Alpha much discomfort as he not only interrupted an intimate moment but is risking the security of their mission by yelling loudly and potentially drawing unwanted attention to them from the Moderators.)After Flamegirl gets annoyed with him, Nylocke apologizes, then states that he is "Nylocke, master of fighting with the might of three warriors while also remaining ever so quiet", before Neomutant shows up and reveals his plan.
Neomutant explains to the trio how the mission will work - the foursome will enter the moon through Neomutant's hacked logout function which will teleport them to TOME's moon instead of the world map, which is where the hacker base is located. The only line of defense Neomutant is aware of is Tigerlilly, so he believes that they can easily overcome them so long as they don't lose and get logged off, however, Kizuna is revealed to be talking to Odboll and giving him directions. Neomutant directs the trio to get to the top of the moon to destroy the core of the antivirus weapon, which he believes the hackers are going to use to try and control the Forbidden Power (as opposed to their actual goal of stopping it). The four proceed with the Infiltration Mission and travel to the top of the Hacker Base...
Meanwhile, the Netkings are ensuring that everyone had been logged off safely, unaware of the ongoing Infiltration Mission. As the Netkings look on worriedly, Webmaster assures the other Netkings that the Forbidden Power will be finally dealt with once and for all...
== Trivia ==
* Episode 13 was the first episode to be animated all at once instead of scene-by-scene.
* According to the TOME audio commentaries, TOME Episode 13 is the first episode to get the story "back on track" after the Challenge of the Netkings, as the Challenge of the Netkings was originally supposed to occur directly after the incident with Demon Zetto in Episode 10 when it was the season 2 premiere as opposed to the season 1 finale it ultimately ended up as.

'''Monstrosities''' is the fifteenth episode of ''[[TOME (Series)|TOME]]'', however, as it takes place immediately after [[The Infiltration Mission]] (the Thirteenth Episode), and the actual fourteenth episode is the prequel episode [[Episode 0|/FILE:ZERO]], it is listed as Episode 14 on all official sources.
==Summary==
'''From the TOME Website:'''
''With new information in hand, our heroes team up with their former enemy, Neomutant, to infiltrate the headquarters of D-Buggers.org in TOME’s moon. With the Forbidden Power still a very real threat, Alpha and the others are seeking to finally put an end to the hackers’ supposed plan to seize this dangerous virus…but what is it Zetto and Kizuna are TRULY planning?''
''With security in place to combat the infiltration team and the Netkings doing what they can to prevent a second incident, it’s becoming a race against time for every player still logged in! Those with their deepest ties to the world of TOME are about to come face to face with something horrifying.''
== Plot ==
[[File:A New Player in the Game..png|thumb|220x220px|A New Player in the Game.]]
As [[Alpha]], [[Neomutant]], [[Flamegirl]] and [[Nylocke]] steadily make their way up to the top of [[D-Buggers.org]]'s headquarters, [[Zetto]] and [[Kizuna]] grow increasingly worried as to whether or not they can really pull off their plan. While Kizuna muses that it has to, (as she believes that nothing the Netkings can try will accomplish anything), Zetto merely expresses relief that no one is longer in any danger, as the Netkings had evacuated everyone before anything major had happened. Kizuna begins to retort that their lives are still in danger regardless, but before the argument can go on any further, a mysterious figure speaking through a symbol resembling an eye tells both Zetto and Kizuna that no one will ever be in any danger from The Forbidden Power again once the Dragon Bug is completed. Kizuna replies that they are almost ready to launch and that she will go down to make sure everything runs smoothly, to which the Mysterious Figure replies that neither of them should screw up their plan.
[[File:Nylocke, Flamegirl, Alpha and Neomutant.png|left|thumb|220x220px|Nylocke, Flamegirl, Alpha, and Neomutant.]]
Meanwhile, the group continues to climb higher up in D-Buggers.Org's HQ. However, an alarm sounds, which causes Neomutant to realize that the hackers know they are there. Angrily, Alpha begins to chastise Neomutant about how suspicious the situation seems, but before the group can argue any further the platform they are standing on splits the team into two groups - one consisting of Alpha and Neomutant and the other consisting of Flamey and Nylocke. From behind the scenes, [[Odboll]] laughs and taunts the players about how they are "In the HARD level now!", as he separates various structures in the hacker base using a computer monitor situated on his ball.
Alpha and Neomutant, having wound up in a small, circular area within the base, continue to argue, as Alpha's distrust of Neomutant grows. Flamegirl and Nylocke, however, end up on a large, enclosed platform where Odboll greets them and introduces himself, telling them that he will "Make [them] lil' piggies F****** SQUEAL in [his] Dungeon!!!". As Odboll separates Flamgirl and Nylocke's platform into several smaller pieces, Tigerlilly assaults Neomutant and Alpha and proceeds to relentlessly attack them. While both groups manage to overcome their respective opponents, Flamegirl by deciphering Odboll's password and Alpha by shattering Tigerlilly's "Beast Armor" (reverting her to her harmless Cat form), Neo is logged out in the fight and Nylocke is captured, leaving only Flamey and Alpha remaining in the base.
Zetto brings Nylocke to the control center of the D-Buggers HQ, extracting the Dragon Bug's head from his character model (which had been previously placed there for safekeeping, and was a missing piece of the antivirus weapon), presumably locking him inside the game. Flamegirl and Alpha regroup at the core of the headquarters, but before they can formulate a new plan, Kizuna attacks Alpha and Zetto renders Flamegirl immobile due to his control over the Antivirus, revealing to the main characters that they, in fact, were leading D-Buggers.org from the beginning. Zetto begins to explain his motivations to Alpha, making him increasingly frustrated and angry...
[[File:Kajet, the True Shadowguard Beast..png|left|thumb|294x294px|Kajet, the True Shadowguard Beast.]]
At the same time, Webmaster instructs the Netkings to try and use a code similar to SOFDTI's code to neutralize the virus, hoping that it will work. However, the Virus unexpectedly bursts free of the egg containing it, scattering the Netkings across ;Sanctuary and unleashing the monster within. Similarly, Flamegirl begins to moan in agonizing pain, causing Zetto and Kizuna to realize something is not right... before, at long last, the Antivirus breaks free and consumes Flamegirl, transforming her into the Dragon Bug's power source. Alpha looks on in abject horror as the only defense against the monstrosity he has feared and fought for so long becomes a monstrosity of its own...
[[File:Dragon Bug, Ultimate Vaccination Weapon..PNG|thumb|291x291px|Dragon Bug, Ultimate Vaccination Weapon.]]
The Virus, now no longer contained by its egg form, lowers itself into ;Sanctuary upon the Netking statues and releases the True Shadowguard Beast that lies within - Kajet. Meanwhile, the Dragon Bug begins to carry out its final function, (eliminating the virus) and conjures a portal to ;Sanctuary, but not before Alpha breaks free of Kizuna and latches onto the Dragon Bug, trying to save Stephanie...
[[File:Alpha's Skyward Scream..png|thumb|240x240px|It's About Time.]]
Although Zetto attempts to stop the Dragon Bug, and fails, he quickly switches over to Kirbopher (whom he had kept logged on in the game) to try and confront Kajet once and for all. Although Kirbopher manages to hold his own against the "Forbidden Power" 's true form, he is eventually crushed by Kajet's grip and is cast aside into the nether regions of ;Sanctuary as the Virus begins to face its fated foe. The Dragon Bug and Kajet, now prepared to fight to the death, begin to tear apart TOME itself in their struggle, as Alpha, hopelessly cast aside into ;Sanctuary, stumbles upon Kirbopher's character model, believing his friend to be dead. Realizing that most of his friends are probably gone, Alpha begins to break down and lets out a horrified skyward scream, as the mysterious figure really in charge of the D-Bug Organization looks on and comments that it was about time...
== Trivia ==
* Although this episode was the fifteenth from a production standpoint, it is considered to be the series' fourteenth episode due to Episode 00's status as a prequel special.
* Odboll saying "Skeet Skeet Motherf***er!" is a reference to the song "Get Low" by Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz.

However, due to [[Episode 0|/FILE:ZERO]]'s status as a prequel episode, all official sources list this episode as TOME Episode 15. As of now, it is the finale for the entire series, as no plans for a third season have been finalized. This episode is also known as '''TOME Episode 15: TTA.'''
== Summary ==
'''From the TOME website:'''
''TOME, the virtual game world that so many have grown to cherish…has become the stage for a race against time to save a human life. With our heroes dropping one by one off the map, only one is left standing, broken and lost… Alpha, is the last hope to fix everything.''
== Plot ==
[[File:Truth..PNG|thumb|220x220px|Truth.]]
The episode begins with Alpha still having a panic attack while Kajet and the Dragon Bug clash in the background. Zetto logs back in via Netking privilages and over the corpse of his former avatar, Kirbopher, and says this was his biggest mistake. Alpha hears the statement and along with remembering things both Zetto and Kirbopher said, he realizes Zetto and Kirbopher are played by the same user. Alpha attacks Zetto out of anger and is able to grab Zetto. He demands to know why his friend would do this and Zetto responds he just wanted to help. Alpha is still angry but Zetto says he's sorry and Alpha backs down. Kizuna also arrives. After that Kajet and the Dragon Bug finally cancel each other out.
The three players, along with the five Netkings arrive at the site of destruction, a massive hole. Kizuna claims the two have been reduced to raw code and doesn't know what happened to Flamegirl. The remains of Kajet and the Dragon Bug are then concealed into two crystals with a mysterious figure taking the crystal into the site of destruction. Through a talk screen, it is revealed that Rubirules was the boss of D-Buggers and using both the virus and antivirus he'll control Softdti and use her as a springboard for a technological revolution. Zetto tries to convince Rubirules into stopping his plan but telling him Flamegirl is not responding and is possibily in a coma or dead, trapped inside the antivirus. Rubirules, believing it is a lie, conitnues ignoring the angry pleas of all the people still there. Rubirules ends the chat screen and Neomutant appears revealing that when the Netkings visited he and Flamegirl's high school, Rubirules asked him to code the antivirus. But as payback for Flamegirl not excepting his offer of dating, he coded the antivirus in a way it would mentally strain her and suggested her to Rubirules as the host of the antivirus. Rubirules does not know any of this information though which is the reason he didn't believe Zetto's plea. He then claimed, "the tramp had it coming just like I wanted." He proceeds to laugh, but Alpha launches an Orion Disk at him and logging him out. Alpha jumps into the hole and Zetto and Kizuna follow in, telling the Netkings not to shut down the server to not risk Flamegirl's safety. Rubirules arrives at where Softdi is sleeping in which Gamecrazed spawns and reveals that he is Softdi's "shadow" that would protect her from outside threats. She also reveals she did this to stop the hackers that were destroying her home. Rubirules and Gamecrazed fight, but Gamecrazed loses as Rubirules uses the virus and antivirus in successsion to defeat him. Gamecrazed is forced back into Softdi's core. Alpha, Zetto, and Kizuna arrive and Zetto pleads to Rubirules for him to stop. Rubirules continues and Kizuna transforms into Tigerlily to attack. Rubirules uses the virus and Kizuna is knocked out. Zetto uses the absorption power in his arm to attract the Forbidden Power to him. He gets it but is being effected in real life. Rubirules berates him saying he's a failure in response. Alpha then pleads to Zetto to give him the virus and Zetto does. Alpha speaks to Forbidden Power saying that they should work together. He claims that he has something worth fighitng for and that if the virus dies, it'll die a weakling. Instead it should die in the feeling it knows best, the feeling of battle. The two then work together. The result is Virus Fusion Alpha: an amalgamation of Alpha and Kajet. Equipped with an virus arm that looks like Kajet's head ,the strength of the virus, and his own mind and power, Alpha demands for Rubirules to hand over the Purple Flame. Rubirules responds by fusing himself with the antivirus to become a monsterous being known as "Monsterrubirules." Virus Fusion Alpha takes out this form resulting in Rubirules to become his base form. Rubirules claims Alpha is a monster but Alpha responds with "Which one of us is really the real monster here?" Rubirules then transforms into Alpha. The two clash but it ends with Rubirules extremely damaging Alpha by using the Dragon Bug's head to destroy the virus arm. Virus Fusion Alpha reverts back into his regular form and tries to convince Rubirules to let Flamegirl go. Rubirules says that he's going to change the world and won't. Alpha and Rubirules clash for the final time and Alpha wins. But the result is a massive antivirus blast that knocks out Alpha and frees Flamegirl.
[[File:Tears..PNG|left|thumb|215x215px|Tears.]]
Still controlled by the antivirus, Flamegirl prepares to kill Alpha with an antivirus blast but Alpha kisses Flamegirl and result is the antivirus and virus being destroyed with Kajet proclaimming, "Such overwhelmming power.......incredible."
[[File:Ambition..PNG|thumb|220x220px|Ambition.]]
Everyone is knocked out after. Softdi awakens and claims she has felt such emotions from Alpha and Flamegirl before. Kizuna awakens and prepares to permamently kill Softdi, saying that she could spawn another virus and hurt Zetto. Zetto shoots her in the back, logging her out. Softdi then says thank you for saving her to the currently awaken Alpha, Flamegirl, and Zetto. Back on the surface, Rubirules angerly asks the Netkings why they wouldn't use Softdi as way to revolutionzie the world's technology. The Netkings respond with the fact they accpeted her like her daughter and accpeted her as a sentient being. A user then appears and reveals himself to be Agent Giga of the US Cyber Protecterate. He says Rubirules is under arrest for revealing Softdi and risking the lives of humans. Rubirules begins to say all the Netkings are sad and pathetic but is logged out by Nylcoke who attacks him. Nylcoke says that he's proud to be apart of Tome. Agent Giga then says that once he's handed over the report of this incident, he'll have trouble keeping the game alive. Softdi then appears in a massive, pink, Gamecrazed like form saying that she accepts the fact she might be deleted in order to protect all humans from another virus incident. She also expresses the fact that she has been loved by her friends and has lived a meaningful life. She then retreats back into the core. Zetto then breaks the silence by saying that the rest of them desreve the reward for completing the challenge of Netkings and that they should grant their wish. It then cuts to a week later in which Saturndiva and Whyti talk about rumors of the game shutting down hoping it doesn't shut down. It then cuts to Rockoon trying to type an apology letter to Doubling but sees Odboll bullying Archy. Angry, Rockoon blows up Odboll, and asks Archy, with his hand out, "Hey kiddo, what's up." A grave of Kirbopher is shown with the sword in a pedestal with his hat on the hilt. Finally, Saturndiva asks where's Flamegirl with Whyti saying she won't be online saying that she has family coming from out of town. In California, the actual players of Alpha, Flamegirl, Nylocke, and Kirbopher meet up. The series ends with Softdi saying.....
<p style="text-align: center;">"Thank you for playing."</p>
==A2Z Version==
The remastered version of this episode (part of the "Zetto's Resolution" finale of the compilation series [[TOME: A2Z]]) will feature an extended live-action sequence as well as new animated scenes. Niosi is confirmed to reprise his role, as well as featuring Corey Holland (voice of [[Okra/Justin|Justin]] on "[[Year One]]") in the live action footage.
== Trivia ==
* This episode's title and number are both references to TOME's precursor, TTA (which is also known as ''Tv Tome Adventures''). ''Truth. Tears. Ambition.'' is abbreviated as TTA, and fifteen is an important number in the original series' storyline, as well as an allusion to Kirbopher's original username (''Kirbopher15'').
* This is the first time in both TTA and Tome that there is a live action sequence.
* Rubirules' speech on how he "should be listened to because he knows what he's talking about" was derived from animation artist Arin Hanson's (whom also frequently collaborated with creator Chris Niosi on his numerous works, including TTA) negative-received critique on the first episode of TOME, [[You've Gotta Virus]], when it was first released on Newgrounds.
*It should be noted that the live action portion of Episode 15 has been removed as of October 2021 for unknown circumstances, but the original can still be found through YouTube archives.

'''/FILE:ZERO''' is the "zeroth" episode of TOME, referred to as '''Episode 00'''. It is the fourth episode of season 2 and the fourteenth episode overall, however, it is chronologically the first episode as it describes events taking place in TOME's development phase and serves as a prequel story to the entire TOME saga so far.
==Summary==
'''From the TOME Website:'''
''It began with a simple concept, developed by 7 computer programmers from a company known as Netking Software. Their goal was to create a program that could understand human thought and translate those thoughts into tangible data. What started as an ambitious game project, to bring virtual reality and online social interaction to a new level…transformed into something far greater than they bargained for. They had created…new life.''
''Learn the origins of the “Terrain of Magical Expertise” through the story of an artificial intelligence, her parents, her experiences…and how they shaped a chain of events that would go on to unknowingly affect the lives of gamers all around the world.''
== Plot ==
In Early 2020, seven computer programmers, hired by the organization known as [[Plan.Net]] from the company known as [[Netking Software]], begin to work on a virtual reality program that can interpret human thoughts and feelings and translate them into a digital format. These programmers, known as the [[Netkings]], were originally trying to create an all new type of Video Game to bring Virtual Reality and Social Networking to a new level, as the progam would be able to instantly translate both premeditated and subconcious thoughts into a character model that could explore the world they were creating.
As the Netkings began to explore the new world they created, they began to realize that the program they created was developing the ability to think, feel, and even speak like a regular human being, and that "she" was learning from her "parents" slowly but certaintly. After Webmaster realizes that there is a presence in the game, the program proceeds to help Bitshrum create the ;Sanctuary region and learn to speak from Kindarspirit, forming a strong bond with the Netkings not unlike that of a parent and a child.
After the Netkings begin to trust the program more and more, they decide to give her a name, dubbing her "SOFDTI". Rubirules even gives her a small, humanlike character model so the Netkings can better communicate with their creation through a visual standpoint. However, despite the sense of parenthood the Netkings began to feel for their child, the fact that they had created virtual life began to cause some of them to feel that they should contact the government while others felt as if SOFDTI should be protected from the government, as they might take her away from them and misuse her. It was Execk who finally suggested that they should continue developing the game and not worry about SOFDTI until after their project was complete, and that their game was their number one priority before the sentient being they had accidentally created. While working on a battlegrid, Execk inadvertently introduced the concept of violence and pain to SOFTDI, attempting to explain it as a natural part of human history, but that by playing a game, humans could simulate the impulse to fight without really acting on it, so nobody gets hurt.
Eventually, Zetto and Kizuna begin to test the game, with their bickering confusing SOFDTI, who is unsure how the two can fight and yet still "have very strong feelings for each other". This implication of romance causes Kizuna to become angry, as she feels uncomfortable with SOFDTI probing her mind as such and lashes out at the program, which upsets SOFDTI. However, SOFDTI eventually realises that having an idea of both the good and bad parts of humanity may just be what it means to be human, unaware of the sickness swelling up inside her, a result of her inability to correctly process negative human emotions.
After some time, the Netkings decide to begin to test the game, and create the first boss - Kajet, the True Shadowguard Beast. However, upon seeing the nightmarish creature before her, SOFDTI's stored negative emotions were unleashed as an involuntary response to her fear, causing Kajet to absorb all of the evil that the Netkings were slowly introducing to SOFDTI. Now an amalgamation of all of the Netkings' most evil desires, Kajet begins to taunt Zetto and tricks him into attacking, allowing the Shadowguard Beast to lash out at Zetto and cut off his character model's arm, tricking his brain into experiencing pain in real life. Realizing what they had created, the Netkings attempt to reset the boss to its starting position but fail, forcing SOFDTI to create a containment code to imprison the Shadowguard Beast into its original egg form, which now contained all of the evil that SOFDTI once had built up inside her.
The Netkings, as a result of what had happened, reached a decision and contacted the government, whom allowed them to keep SOFDTI alive under the condition that she would remain a complete secret. In tribute to their daughter, the Netkings named their virtual reality game TOME, and finally released the game on 2/20/20. The game proved to be a smash hit around the world, and several players such as Nylocke began to play the game for fun and enjoyment, unaware of what was in store for them. So he could conceal his identity but still enjoy the game for what it was, Zetto created a new account - Kirbopher - which did not contain the same scars from the battle with Kajet as Zetto did. However, Kajet, now known as "The Forbidden Power" was still sealed away in the ;Lavendera region, waiting for the right moment to strike once again and infect the world with the pain of its own existance, biding its time in preparation for the right person to come so it could use him or her as a tool to start the cycle of suffering all over again. As Alpha logs into the game for the first time and Kirbopher challenges him to a battle, beginning a lifelong friendship, the question arose as to if anyone would ever be able to stop the virus, should it ever be freed from its prison...

'''Splat''' is a minor character who appears in [[Mansion Midnight|a single episode]] of TOME. She is a [[Morphological]] [[hacker]] with the Adhesive Slime ability. She is also [[Doubling (TOME)|Doubling]]'s sister.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''This new incarnation of Splat I tried to keep the same feel of her bratty, selfish and bitter “charm” of [[Splat (TTA)|the original]], but keep her a bit more real. In my head, I thought of both her and her brother Doubling as big computer geeks growing up, but Splat was always slightly better, coercing Doubling to want and try outdoing her, even though he’s not avidly interested in games. Splat is impatient and coarse, but still revels in what she does; she acts very in control…that is until [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|GC]] appears to show her otherwise.
''My sister Alison, who never got the chance to play a villain before, had some great moments with Splat during the recording process. Design-wise I kept her look mostly the same, but fixed up the helmet a bit and went with a purposely gross-looking color scheme. I consider Doubling like a big wad of pond scum and Splat like a big booger, hence the fugly yellow-green. Making Splat’s hair into her trademark “Gel Dragon” attack was also very fun when animating her…my only regret is not finding an appropriate place to work in her classic “RIP HIM APART!” phrase.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Splat-279545587</ref>
===Mansion Midnight===
Splat is first mentioned at the beginning of [[Mansion Midnight]] when [[D-Buggers.org]] asks Doubling for a replacement hacker. Doubling recommends his sister, Splat, stating that she's an even better hacker than he is. Splat is then hired to invade the mansion and take the shield that [[Asterob (TOME)|Asterob]] uses. Upon arrival, she begins corrupting the Mansion's graphics with her slime powers, before capturing [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] and [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]. She then demands Asterob's shield but he refuses, so she also incapacitates him and threatens to destroy the Mansion if he doesn't comply. Suddenly, Gamecrazed appears and attacks her, but is also captured by her slime powers. He then merges into the slime that is covering the wall and uses his now enormous form to grab Splat and throw her out of the Mansion, instantly defeating her. She has not been seen since.
==Personality==
Splat focuses on getting the job done and has little tolerance for people who get in her way. She does seem to enjoy TOME far more than her brother, and does take some pleasure in destroying objects.
==Relationships==
'''[[Doubling (TOME)|Doubling]]:''' Although they are never seen together, Doubling is Splat's brother, and they seem to be on relatively good terms with each other.
==Abilities==
* '''Booger Bubble''': A projectile that encases the opponent in a thick bubble of goop, trapping them.
* '''Gel Dragon''': A slow-moving but powerful projectile attack that turns into a sentient dragon head made of slime.
* '''Flying Fist''': A projectile technique in which the user throws pieces of their own body as punches. The fists can regenerate when attached back to the user’s body.
* '''Spiketrap''': The user protrudes sharp spikes from their body.
==Trivia==
* Splat's voice actress, Alison Fanelli, is the older sister of Chris Niosi (creator of TOME and voice actor of Kirbopher).

'''Demonking''' is a former [[hacker]], as well as a former "employee" of [[D-buggers.org]]. He is of the [[Spellcaster]] class with the power of Hellfire. He first appears in [[Highest Form Of Flattery]] as a hacker, alongside [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]], but Nylocke convinces him to give up his hacking ways by the end of the episode. He currently also appears in [[Nylocke's Day Off|two oth]][[The Legend of Nylocke|er shorts]] as well as cameos in [[Gemini Tournament Yin]] and [[Gemini Tournament Yang]].
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''This version ended up being one of my favorites in terms of the hackers' re-imagining. He's a lot of fun to draw, with his design being simply an update to his old look, but I really enjoyed animating him in his Episode 03 appearance. I was also pretty clear on what I wanted to do with him in terms of his personality, which was not so much an update or even an exaggeration to how he was in [[TvTome Adventures]], but a more solid direction of his portrayal.
I wanted him to be a funny villain, so I really played up his laziness, his impressionability and more than anything: his pathetic demeanor. Having "Sorry..." be his first words spoken, especially after such a commanding entrance, I thought would set the stage and get across my overall idea for him. If there's one thing I wish I could go back and change about Episode 03, in retrospect, I would've shortened the conversation between [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] and her friends and spent more time with Nylocke and Demonking.
Reason being, while I intended for Nylocke to just be so influential and weirdly inspiring to Demonking and ultimately changes him for the better, there wasn't enough time spent in that scene to really get it across. People still generally bought it, but I definitely would've readjusted or even entirely rewritten that scene to make Demonking's sudden "transformation" go a bit smoother. Either way, he was a fun ride and I DO wanna bring him back, where appropriate.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Demonking-291890204</ref>
===Season 1===
In episode 3, Demonking is first observed looking over ;Mechcity, as foreshadowing moments. He gives off an intimidating, dark air from the start--giving the perception he is exactly what he looks like--a frightening demon. He is seen actually once with Ravenfreak directly in the episode--with his accomplice in the form of a raven perched on his wing as they prepare to set off on their mission. Though Ravenfreak's intentions have been made clear--install the anti-virus on someone close to Alpha, and prove if Alpha has the Forbidden Power or not--it is still foggy as to what Demonking's purpose is. However, as his next move was to attack Saturndiva and Whyti as they watched Ravenfreak (disguised as Alpha) lead Flamegirl off, it is a possibility he was merely there to make sure no one got in his accomplice's way.
Demonking is seen next battling Saturndiva and Whyti. The first true reveal of his character is when they accuse him of cheating, he apologizes. Nylocke and the real Alpha then arrive, to discover what's happening. Nylocke aids the battle by joining Whyti to give chase to Demonking, while Alpha, after being informed by Saturndiva, gives chase for Ravenfreak and Flamegirl.
Demonking is 'cornered' to a virtual park within ;Mechcity by Nylocke and Whyti, where they once again take up combat. However, Demonking seems unwilling to fight, begging them to make things easier for him. When he admits that he didn't want to destroy the virtual park they were in in battle, Nylocke begins to question his intentions. Demonking explains that he took the job because he really just wanted to go back to school, and didn't have the money. When Nylocke comments on how hacking wouldn't be the good choice at all, Demonking agrees. This spurs Nylocke into a full on reformation speech. Though Demonking doesn't seem to not know half the stuff Nylocke means, he agrees to stop, thus both backing out of the mission he and Ravenfreak were assigned and being reformed.
Saturndiva then appears, telling them she thinks someone had been pretending to be Alpha. Demonking adds the comment that "it's probably him," implying Ravenfreak. Lead by Nylocke, he, Saturndiva, and Whyti go to find Alpha and Flamegirl in case they needed help.
When the group finds them (in an almost romantic scenario) that is the last Demonking is seen in the episode.
Demonking reappears in Nylocke's Day Off, first heard calling for help. He is then seen fleeing from something or someone, rushing up to Nylocke and pleading for his aid. He said that some 'weird' dude had been harassing him all day and was following him. This person turns out to be Serpentine, Nylocke's in-character arch nemesis. Demonking explains that Serpentine found out he used to be a hacker, and that was why he wouldn't leave him be. Serpentine explains that he had no interest in making Demonking his cohort (as Nylocke first assumes) and merely wanted to be taught how to hack--though Demonking retorts that it isn't that easy, if he were to listen to Serpentine.
When Nylocke defeats Serpentine, Demonking is at first relieved and thanks him profusely. However, Nylocke then launches into a speech of how maybe he could reform Serpentine as he did Demonking, though saying it might not be as ridicioulously easy. Demonking begins to appear to take offense, stopping Nylocke's speech abruptly before Nylocke can go on about how 'easy' it was to reform Demonking. Nylocke gives a swift goodbye, and runs off. Demonking pauses, mumbling that Nylocke hurt his feelings.
The short closes with Demonking looking angry and commenting Nylocke 'will pay'.
Demonking appears again in The Legend of Nylocke, but with noticeable differences. He is a darker shade of red and bears a tiny mustache. He also speaks in a different, super-villain-like voice, one that's slightly similar to Serpentine's. He attacks Nylocke, explaining that he has once again become a hacker. However, the different voice and the different look make it hard to believe, unless Demonking had become a roleplayer himself, in order to get revenge on Nylocke for hurting his feelings in the last short he appeared in. However, it is revealed that Serpentine took Demonking under his wing and converted him into a role-playing villain. Serpentine is defeated once again, this time by Demonking's intervention, and Nylocke and Demonking maintain a friendly rivalry between themselves.
Demonking entered the Gemini tournament prior to Episode 8 with an unnamed succubus-themed partner. They battle Nylocke and Gamecrazed in the quarterfinal round of the tournament, but their battle is not shown on-screen. Nylocke is heard describing the battle at the end of Episode 9, but this remains Demonking's last appearance so far.
==Personality==
Demonking is first shown as being quite a stoic and foreboding figure, but when he later begins to talk it is revealed he has little to no interest in hacking or attacking people, and often whines about things if they don't turn out favorably for him. He states that his only reason for hacking is to raise enough money to allow him to return to school. When Nylocke tries to convince him to change his ways, he is successful, and Demonking ends his career as a hacker.

==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''This version ended up being one of my favorites in terms of the hackers' re-imagining. He's a lot of fun to draw, with his design being simply an update to his old look, but I really enjoyed animating him in his Episode 03 appearance. I was also pretty clear on what I wanted to do with him in terms of his personality, which was not so much an update or even an exaggeration to how he was in [[TvTome Adventures]], but a more solid direction of his portrayal.
I wanted him to be a funny villain, so I really played up his laziness, his impressionability and more than anything: his pathetic demeanor. Having "Sorry..." be his first words spoken, especially after such a commanding entrance, I thought would set the stage and get across my overall idea for him. If there's one thing I wish I could go back and change about Episode 03, in retrospect, I would've shortened the conversation between [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] and her friends and spent more time with Nylocke and Demonking.
Reason being, while I intended for Nylocke to just be so influential and weirdly inspiring to Demonking and ultimately changes him for the better, there wasn't enough time spent in that scene to really get it across. People still generally bought it, but I definitely would've readjusted or even entirely rewritten that scene to make Demonking's sudden "transformation" go a bit smoother. Either way, he was a fun ride and I DO wanna bring him back, where appropriate.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Demonking-291890204</ref>
===Season 1===
In episode 3, Demonking is first observed looking over ;Mechcity, as foreshadowing moments. He gives off an intimidating, dark air from the start--giving the perception he is exactly what he looks like--a frightening demon. He is seen actually once with Ravenfreak directly in the episode--with his accomplice in the form of a raven perched on his wing as they prepare to set off on their mission. Though Ravenfreak's intentions have been made clear--install the anti-virus on someone close to Alpha, and prove if Alpha has the Forbidden Power or not--it is still foggy as to what Demonking's purpose is. However, as his next move was to attack Saturndiva and Whyti as they watched Ravenfreak (disguised as Alpha) lead Flamegirl off, it is a possibility he was merely there to make sure no one got in his accomplice's way.
Demonking is seen next battling Saturndiva and Whyti. The first true reveal of his character is when they accuse him of cheating, he apologizes. Nylocke and the real Alpha then arrive, to discover what's happening. Nylocke aids the battle by joining Whyti to give chase to Demonking, while Alpha, after being informed by Saturndiva, gives chase for Ravenfreak and Flamegirl.
Demonking is 'cornered' to a virtual park within ;Mechcity by Nylocke and Whyti, where they once again take up combat. However, Demonking seems unwilling to fight, begging them to make things easier for him. When he admits that he didn't want to destroy the virtual park they were in in battle, Nylocke begins to question his intentions. Demonking explains that he took the job because he really just wanted to go back to school, and didn't have the money. When Nylocke comments on how hacking wouldn't be the good choice at all, Demonking agrees. This spurs Nylocke into a full on reformation speech. Though Demonking doesn't seem to not know half the stuff Nylocke means, he agrees to stop, thus both backing out of the mission he and Ravenfreak were assigned and being reformed.
Saturndiva then appears, telling them she thinks someone had been pretending to be Alpha. Demonking adds the comment that "it's probably him," implying Ravenfreak. Lead by Nylocke, he, Saturndiva, and Whyti go to find Alpha and Flamegirl in case they needed help.
When the group finds them (in an almost romantic scenario) that is the last Demonking is seen in the episode.
Demonking reappears in Nylocke's Day Off, first heard calling for help. He is then seen fleeing from something or someone, rushing up to Nylocke and pleading for his aid. He said that some 'weird' dude had been harassing him all day and was following him. This person turns out to be Serpentine, Nylocke's in-character arch nemesis. Demonking explains that Serpentine found out he used to be a hacker, and that was why he wouldn't leave him be. Serpentine explains that he had no interest in making Demonking his cohort (as Nylocke first assumes) and merely wanted to be taught how to hack--though Demonking retorts that it isn't that easy, if he were to listen to Serpentine.
When Nylocke defeats Serpentine, Demonking is at first relieved and thanks him profusely. However, Nylocke then launches into a speech of how maybe he could reform Serpentine as he did Demonking, though saying it might not be as ridicioulously easy. Demonking begins to appear to take offense, stopping Nylocke's speech abruptly before Nylocke can go on about how 'easy' it was to reform Demonking. Nylocke gives a swift goodbye, and runs off. Demonking pauses, mumbling that Nylocke hurt his feelings.
The short closes with Demonking looking angry and commenting Nylocke 'will pay'.
Demonking appears again in The Legend of Nylocke, but with noticeable differences. He is a darker shade of red and bears a tiny mustache. He also speaks in a different, super-villain-like voice, one that's slightly similar to Serpentine's. He attacks Nylocke, explaining that he has once again become a hacker. However, the different voice and the different look make it hard to believe, unless Demonking had become a roleplayer himself, in order to get revenge on Nylocke for hurting his feelings in the last short he appeared in. However, it is revealed that Serpentine took Demonking under his wing and converted him into a role-playing villain. Serpentine is defeated once again, this time by Demonking's intervention, and Nylocke and Demonking maintain a friendly rivalry between themselves.
Demonking entered the Gemini tournament prior to Episode 8 with an unnamed succubus-themed partner.

'''Odboll''' is the first new [[hacker]] introduced in season 2 of TOME. He appears briefly at the beginning of [[Year One]] causing havoc in [[;Sanctuary]]. However, [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] and his friends show up and stall Odboll until the moderators arrive, banning him. Odboll appears again briefly in [[The Infiltration Mission]] before showing up in [[Monstrosities]] as the Moon's security force, using his dungeon control powers to manipulate the structures within D-Buggers' base. He is defeated by Flamegirl's novice programming skills.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''This foul-mouthed and disgusting hacker first appears to terrorize the players in TOME's [[;Sanctuary]] region, where no combat is allowed. He messes with the coding of the neighboring [[;MechCity]] region's battlegrids and imports them to the social-networking zone to harass the innocent bystanders. Odboll seems to only care about enjoying himself, but in ALL of the wrong ways. He does his dirty-work by controlling space that he refers to as his "Dungeon" and shifting his body into a weapon within that space.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Odboll-478707667</ref>
===Season 2===
==Personality==
Odboll is extremely hyperactive and vulgar. He drops major curses virtually every sentence and has so far said nothing that wasn't an insult. In contrast with [[Doubling (TOME)|Doubling]] and [[Splat (TOME)|Splat]], none of Odboll's curses are censored in audio or text.
==Relationships==
==Abilities==
==Trivia==
* Although Odboll is in the Mechanical class, no known screws or metallics are on his body, hinting that he rushed his character and put no effort into his account.
** It is possible that his character is based on the term "gremlin," which is a stereotype for mechanics and engineers.
* Odball's race is Goblin and appears to be heavily influenced by World Of Warcraft Goblins suggesting he copied from a WoW avatar adding to how rushed his account seems.

'''Dustbunny''' is a minor [[hacker]] who appears during the [[Gemini Tournament]] as [[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]'s partner. She is tasked with stealing [[Asterob (TOME)|Asterob]]'s shield in an effort to contain the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]]. The heist is successful, but ultimately the shield is unable to completely absorb the Forbidden Power and the plan backfires. [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] then appears and defeats Dustbunny with his Breaker Beam. She has not been seen since.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''Her personality didn't end up being far off from her previous incarnation; this was more a case of putting her character in a different point of the story for entirely new options. The funnest challenge for me was her design. The first few sketches of her TOME design were close to looking like her old one; revealing and very sexualized, even though she's not really a "temptress" character in personality, only in look. She went through a few different iterations of her suit until we ended up with the current one. At one point, the fuzzy rim on the opening was made of smoke, but I thought it'd get too difficult to blend it with the smoke she produced as an attack, so I made it solid. The "curls" on her hair were also made to resemble a rabbit's tail.
''Cristina Vee was a fun and challenging pick to voice Dustbunny, as she doesn't often get the chance to play antagonistic characters. At one point, I considered giving to Dustbunny a slight Southern accent, but since Neomutant's Spanish accent ended up being a bit heavier than originally expected, I decided to not go in that direction. Dustbunny's couple scenes during the tournament became some new favorite moments of mine through production!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Dustbunny-413583134</ref>
===Season 1===
==Personality==
==Relationships==
==Abilities==
* Disappearing Dagger: An unlimited projectile move that allows the user to create throwing-knives at any time.
* Plume: The user's body dissolves into smoke to avoid physical attacks. This smoke is also extremely flammable and could cause a big explosion if ignited.
* Smoke Hold: The user wraps smoke around an opponent's body in order to temporarily paralyze them. This move can also be executed while the user is in smoke-form from "Plume".

'''Sniperwheel''' is a minor character in TOME, of the [[Mechanical]] class with an arsenal of weapons as his power.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''This time around, the character took a bit more of a backseat as just an incidental to represent the night-owl players of TOME. Sniper"wheel" as he's been retitled, only had some slight changes from the original design, but they were welcome ones, particularly the wheel as his new name implies, as opposed to a giant rotating ball. In terms of personality, I knew I wanted to stress the "big shot" attitude he had before, but something I never quite portrayed with the original [[Sniperwave (TTA)|Sniperwave]] was that I always thought of him with a form of gangster speak. I considered a few different people for him, but ultimately settled on Jon Jafari, who would often break into a New York dialect at random intervals during his video reviews. His style of comedy lent itself well to the character and we ultimately ended up with this freakish combination of Nathan Lane and Christopher Walken. Animating Snipe's weapons, and his entire fight scene with [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirb]] too, was a blast to work on.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Sniperwheel-277183959</ref>
===Season 1===
==Personality==
Sniperwheel can come across as being very competitive and perhaps a bit arrogant, challenging any player to try and fight him when he is first introduced in [[Mansion Midnight]]. He's displayed as being extremely charismatic and talkative. In combat, he tends to rely on rapid use of his Headcannon.
==Relationships==
* '''[[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': When Sniperwheel challenges Kirbopher to a battle in Episode 2, he accepts it and the pair engage in combat. After a close fight, Kirbopher defeats him, and rushes off to tail [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]] before they can have a rematch.
* '''[[Asterob (TOME)|Asterob]]''': In the [[Gemini Tournament]], Sniperwheel competes with Asterob as his partner. The pair first fight against Dustbunny and Neomutant. They win this match by default when their opponents disappear, taking with them Asterob's shield.
==Abilities==
* '''Shiftarm''': A transforming arm that can shift between a cannon, a sniper-rifle and a machine gun.
* '''Rocket Burn''': A charging attack activated by two powerful rocket boosters on the user's back.
* '''Bomball''': Small bombs that can be launched in succession.
* '''Headcannon''': A powerful attack that must be charged for a great amount of time, but releases a beam that covers the entire length of the battlefield.
==Trivia==
* Chris Niosi picked Jon to voice Sniperwheel because, "I knew I wanted to stress the 'big shot' attitude he had before, but something I never quite portrayed with the original Sniperwave was that I always thought of him with a form of gangster speak. I considered a few different people for him, but ultimately settled on Jon Jafari, who would often break into a New York dialect at random intervals during his video reviews."
** When Sniperwheel was written into the Gemini Tournament arc, Niosi originally believed that Jon would not be available to voice the character, and so casted another voice actor as the character. This actor was Jeremy Harrington, or Jeremy Elbertson, better known by his online name "Jerma985". Jeremy had recorded all of his lines for Episode 8 and Niosi had finished animating Sniperwheel's scenes to match his delivery when he had a chance encounter with Jon in New York. Jon agreed to reprise his role and matched the Jeremy's delivery so that the animation on episode 8 so that it would still match his lines. And Jon continued to voice act for Episode 9 as well, which was also planned for Jeremy to voice act in, but wasn't far enough ahead that he recorded lines for it aside from Sniperwheel's final line in the show. This was revealed in TOME's Did You Know Voice Acting special episode.

'''Alpha''' (born '''Michael''') is one of the five members of the [[Dandy Alliance]] on [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]]. He is a [[Fighter]] class player with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He is a shy and largely unassuming player, gaining confidence over the course of the series. In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha has an encounter with the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]] and proceeds to gain its power, which takes the form of enhanced fighting capabilities and a static field around him. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. In [[The Warring Demons]], most of the Forbidden Power is removed from Alpha, but he carries a small piece of it with him, and he merges with it again in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to defeat [[Rubirules]].
==Appearance==
=== TOME 2011 ===
Alpha has multiple looks throughout the series. Throughout all of them, he has bright, spiky red hair, a bang covering his forehead, small white angel wings, and a spiky tail made of white feathers. He also has two black markings over his eyes, resembling roman numerals. In season 1, he wears a two-toned blue and purple oversized sweater with matching pants. The sweater is cropped, revealing either a brown shirt or bodysuit underneath. The front of the sweater has a recreation of his orion discs in purple, and his sleeves and pant legs have similar patterns at their ends. This pattern is likely meant to represent angels, as [[Kindarspirit (TOME)|Kindarspirit]] (an angel) has the same pattern along her waist. He also has brown shoes.
*For Episode 10, Alpha has a special design, retaining his pants but gaining a dark blue tank top and gloves.
His season 2 design is similar in concept, but takes on a redder palette overall. He wears a dark red sweater that's more fitted, with a bright red Greek alpha symbol in the middle, and his collar and sleeves are lined with the same red. He now wears mid-calf boots with his pants tucked into them, and he gains a belt with the same alpha symbol as a buckle.
Throughout the series, Alpha is taken over by the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]], and his character model creates new "demon" forms when this occurs. His clothing remains the same, but his physical body changes; his sclera turn bright red and his pupils become black, his wings and tail turn dark grey, and his overall palette becomes desaturated. His hands also grow to become long and pointy, essentially acting as claws.
When he fuses with the Forbidden Power in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], his character model takes on aspects of Kajet's model; his palette darkens like before, but he gains a dragon arm with Kajet's head on the end, a dragon wing, two large dragon feet, and a demon-like tail. However, his wing remains white, and his hand remains normal.
==Personality==
Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be more confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with [[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]], while he has some problems talking to [[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]] due to his crush on her.
When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When influenced by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident. Niosi states that "his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions."<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref> However, when the Forbidden Power is riled up, it decides to take control of Alpha's mind, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage and attacks any player in sight. While these aren't Alpha's actions, he feels responsible for the damage caused and is scared of what the Forbidden Power may do with his character.
In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to take [[Zetto_(TOME)|Zetto]]'s offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.
From Season 2 ([[Year One]]) onward, he's shown to be a lot more confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself following his encounter with Demon Zetto. As a side effect of his increased confidence, Alpha shows an angrier side of himself; he becomes more easily frustrated at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand, and lashes out at people like the [[Netking Software|Netkings]] or [[Neomutant]].
Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight to the end for the people he cares about, such as Flamegirl. From what is revealed about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In [[Monstrosities]], Alpha has an emotional breakdown after believing his friends are dead.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
=====Season 1=====
''"The current incarnation of Alpha is something I'm very happy with. When developing the personalities of the main five characters, Alpha and [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] I had the most difficulty with. My original idea was keeping him fairly the same, but I felt it would've been far too boring to go that route. When I eventually decided to cast Blake Swift as his new actor (replacing Mike Luckas, who voiced "himself" in the original), the rest fell into place.
''Alpha is now actually the youngest of the group, maybe only a year younger than Flamey at the most, but this age difference lets him come off as more spiritedly and naive. He's very sweet and maybe a tad awkward. His relationship with Flamegirl in this one shifted a bit, in which case he's very comfortable around her and can speak his mind when feeling vunerable or out-of-place. He also has a bit more of a bro-rivalry with [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirb]] this time, which makes for some funny moments.
''As seen in the first episode, after being infected with "[[Kajet]]", Alpha's state of mind changes and his confidence comes to the surface. I don't imagine it so much as a split-personality sort of deal, but more like his emotions are unbridled and he can say whatever comes to mind regardless of repercussions, which ends up being a lifesaver to his friends. In terms of design, I brought down his shirt a bit to show less belly, fixed his hair a bit to have the spike over one eye, as well as his long sleeves and scarf, to project that sort of introverted feel to him. I also gave him a feather-tail to match his angel wings (as opposed to the strange lizard-tail).
''As with the original, Alpha will be going through some major changes in TOME, so look forward to seeing him grow alongside his new-found friends!"''<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-268798345</ref>
=====Demon Form=====
''Using the basic idea of the original concept, I expanded upon it and tried to put some logic to it, as well concocting an interesting "science" behind the idea. Imagine if you will, "fusion" characters; those combined from two people...how would their mind work? Would it be like two consciousnesses controlling a single body, or would it be one NEW consciousness all its own?
''The virus the players know as "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]" is an artificial intelligence that we see "speaks" to Alpha throughout the series; whispering ideas of committing horrible acts into the boy's ear. Alpha, although a great player, starts out as being weak-willed and easily-manipulated. When combining an artificial intelligence that cares about nothing but violence with a human mind that is weak enough to be preyed upon, what do you get? The answer is, a savage.
''The "Demon forms" seen in the show are a result of that; mindless, blood-lusting killers, which when FURTHER combined with the virus' mysterious ability of harming other players through the game in real life, makes for a dangerous combination. Additionally, since the virus has been growing stronger being "hosted" in the mind of a human being and feeding off that further negativity, the subsequent appearances of these Demons gets more and more horrifying! Tons of fun to animate for me...but NOT tons of fun for Blake and I to scream our lungs out on!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Demon-Alpha-422842626</ref>
=====Season 2=====
''A previously was shy and introverted teen, now a confident and skilled player. "Michael" discovered a strange entity during his early days in TOME that players called "[[Kajet|The Forbidden Power]]" and was put through a harsh and danger-filled experience after being infected by it. With the power now lost in the depths of TOME, Alpha has sought to move on, but still strives to protect his friends, whom he clings to dearly. He battles with elemental powers inspired by his favorite Greek and Roman Gods.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Alpha-S2-478706655</ref>
===Season 1===
In [[You've Gotta Virus]], Alpha logs on and is immediately jumped by Kirbopher, but easily defeats him. They decide to meet up with the rest of the group, who are preparing to go out and fight a couple of [[:Category:Hacker|hackers]]. Before deciding whether or not to join Nylocke, [[Gamecrazed]], and a few other players, he stays with Flamegirl before the two have to help Kirbopher in battle.
Once knocked out, Alpha wakes up and travels through a strange doorway in the Battle Grid that takes him to a chained-up static field. It speaks as if it is aware of everything in Alpha's life, and claims to be "just another friend." By letting it in, Alpha also let it out, granting him immense power.
In [[Awaken the Beast]], the Forbidden Power took over his body in order to hurt Kirbopher and cause chaos after being angered by [[Tigerlilly (TOME)|Tigerlilly]], under the guise of assistance. However, he lost to a strange and [[Zetto|powerful user]] in [[;Mechcity]], which caused the Forbidden Power to back off, temporarily.
During [[Infectuation]], a [[Neomutant|mysterious new hacker]] shows up and paralyzes Alpha's character in an attempt to rile up the Forbidden Power. He loses control and starts assaulting the hacker until he makes contact with Flamegirl. Cutting Flamegirl causes him to start screaming in pain as he gets angrier. Flamegirl fends him off and successfully turns him back to normal by hugging him, in part thanks to the Antivirus prototype [[Ravenfreak (TOME)|Ravenfreak]] had given to her.
[[File:Alphathinking.png|thumb|Alpha talking about his desire to be rid of the Forbidden Power.]]In [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is mentally harassed by the Forbidden Power as word of it spreads around, while other players attack him in an attempt to bring it out, but to no avail. Alpha recieves a message from Zetto telling him to meet at the tournament grounds so the Forbidden Power may be removed once and for all. At this point Zetto explains to Alpha how it is taking control over Alpha's naive mind, and that he needs to destroy it before it harms anyone else. The Forbidden Power takes over Alpha once again in an attempt to attack Zetto, but he grabs Alpha and attempts to drain it from him, only for it to destroy his robotic arm and transfer to him instead, turning him into a demonic incarnation of himself in a manner similar to Alpha. Alpha fights the newly awakened Demon Zetto in an intense battle, in which Flamegirl and Nylocke attempt to interfere (but cannot due to the battle grid being up between them), and tell Alpha to intentionally lose the match so the grid can disappear and allow them to help.
Alpha is slashed by Zetto, and as he is damaged enough for the battle to count as a loss for him, the grid fades. Before Zetto delivers the final blow, [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] hops into the arena and pierces the Demon Zetto in the stomach with his sword ([[Drain Edge]] equipped to it), effectively absorbing the Forbidden Power from Zetto, but dealing heavy damage to his body as a result.
Alpha is knocked unconscious as voices from the outside the game world are heard (presumably the voices of Alpha's classmates), who refer to him as Michael. The voices fade away as Flamegirl calls him by that name as well, waking him from his unconscious state of mind. Nylocke tosses the Drain Edge as far as possible, assuring everyone that this will be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. Alpha gazes off into the distance, then suggests they do a quest, relaxed now that their worries are gone.
===Season 2===
Alpha joins the rest of his friends in doing the Challenge Of The Netkings in episodes 11 and 12, and takes on the fight with [[Execk]], making good use of his elemental abilities to overwhelm and defeat him. He goes to cheer on GC for the final fight with Webmaster, but later confronts the Netkings about the Forbidden Power, hoping to get some answers on it, as well as Zetto. This prompts them to reveal Zetto and Kizuna are technically Netkings 6 and 7, with Zetto being the combat tester and Kizuna being the bug checker. Before they can say any more the Forbidden Power is released from the Drain Edge and the Netkings force Alpha and his group out of the game so they can take care of it.
==Relationships==
===Allies===
*'''[[Kirbopher_(TOME)|Kirbopher]]''': One of Alpha's closest friends as well as rival, Kirb sees him as a opponent to test his skills against, but Alpha is rather clueless to Kirbopher's view of him. [[Awaken the Beast]] is where their friendship reaches a crossroad, as Alpha breaks up the argument between Kirbopher and Flamegirl, and also unintentionally hurts Kirbopher with the Forbidden Power.
*'''[[Flamegirl_(TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': His apparent love interest, Flamegirl is impressed with the power Alpha displays with his Forbidden Power-enhanced persona, and is at a loss for words at his new, confident self. They become closer during the events of the Gemini Tournament, having gotten to spend more time with each other as partners. He also kissed her in [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]] to rid her of the [[The Purple Flame|Purple Flame]] that had infected her.
*'''[[Nylocke_(TOME)|Nylocke]]''': The two haven't interacted as much as the first two, but Nylocke always refers to Alpha as "Sir Alpha." Alpha seems unphased by his role-playing, but treats him kindly like he would the others.
*'''[[Gamecrazed_(TOME)|Gamecrazed]]''': Alpha interacts even less so with Gamecrazed, whose cold, quiet and mysterious demeanor puts Alpha off at times.
*'''[[Zetto]]''': Alpha first encounters Zetto in [[Awaken the Beast]], where Zetto defeats Alpha's Demon form. Zetto continues to be somewhat of an antagonistic force throughout the series, though it is revealed that his crosses with Alpha were only to test the Forbidden Power and learn how to beat it. After he was revealed to be Kirbopher's alter ego.
===Enemies===
*'''[[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]]''': One of the first hackers Alpha faces, he is a raccoon with the ability to throw bombs. He holds a grudge against Alpha for defeating him with the Forbidden Power, and in [[Fraggedquest]] is shown to fear him.
*'''[[:Category:Hacker|Hackers]]''': Alpha, much like the rest of his group, often fights hackers throughout the series.
*'''[[Neomutant (TOME)|Neomutant]]''': In [[The Infiltration Mission]], Alpha, Nylocke, and Flamegirl are forced to ally with this hacker in order to infiltrate the base of [[D-Buggers.org]]. Their relationship is strained, at best. When Neomutant reveals that he was leading/manipulating them on all along, he taunts Alpha and says Flamegirl's death was his own fault. Alpha tosses an Orion Shield at Neomutant in anger, decapitating him.
==Abilities ==
*'''Orion Shield:''' A powerful spinning shield that doubles as a discus attack which can be thrown in a barrage of projectiles.
*'''Vulcan Fist:''' A charging dash attack in which the user is enveloped in searing flames. Makes for a good finishing move, and next to the Orion Shield is likely one of Alpha's favorite moves, as he's shown using it a lot.
*'''Poseidon Wave:''' A slow, but forceful projectile attack with a wide range, made of high-pressure water.
*'''Zeus Rage:''' A quick and precise shot of electricity with a long-range that can paralyze the opponent if timed right.
*'''Vulcan Rocket:''' A powerful team technique Alpha and Flamegirl developed for use in the Gemini Tournament. As its name implies, it is a combination of Alpha's Vulcan Fist and Flamegirl's Rocket Burn attacks.
*[[Kajet|'''Forbidden Power''']]''':''' An unknown energy in the form of circular waves of statics and runes that can inflict pain to other players in real life, it can also be used as a shield. From [[The Warring Demons]] to [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha has had the Forbidden Power extracted from him, leaving him incapable of using this power for the period.
**'''Virus Fusion:''' In [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], Alpha strikes a deal with Kajet, allowing himself to be fused with the virus willingly. This fusion grants him increased agility and power, as well as advanced forms of his original abilities.
***'''Forbidden Power:''' Only used as a defensive technique in this form; Alpha uses it as a cocoon to absorb hits, and then scatter the energy as an attack.
***'''Virus Shot:''' A powerful energy blast fired from Alpha's right arm.
***'''Virus Shield:''' Alpha's Orion Shield, enhanced by Kajet. It's much larger than his typical shield and can absorb much stronger hits.
***'''Virus Slice:''' A powerful slice capable of splitting even the toughest of materials, used to defeat Rubirules in his golem form.
***'''Energy Eater:''' Alpha's right arm functions as Kajet's mouth and can be used to bite and latch onto enemies to zap them with virus energy.
[[File:The_warring_demons.png|thumb|right|Alpha in a physical battle against Demon Zetto.]]
*Besides these attacks alone, Alpha is capable of putting up decent hand-to-hand combat; in [[The Warring Demons]], Alpha is shown to exhibit enough strength to rival [[Kajet|Demon]] [[Zetto (TOME)|Zetto]] in physical combat, while in [[Year One]], he is capable of kicking [[Execk (TOME)|Execk]]'s swinging hammer back to his face as a finishing move, knocking him out in the process. Alpha uses this high kick repeatedly throughout the series, and against Zetto in [[Alpha v.s Zetto|AvZ]].
==Gallery==
*''<big>[[Alpha (TOME)/Gallery]]</big>''
== Trivia==
*Alpha's ID number is 010-292-689. This makes him the most recently registered of all the main characters.
*Chris Niosi has said that Alpha is the youngest of his group of friends, being a year younger than [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] at most.
*Alpha's real name (revealed to be Michael in [[The Warring Demons]]) and personality is based on that of Chris Niosi's childhood friend, Mike Luckas.
**This fact strongly influenced the development of the character in the [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (RPG)|RPG adaption]], as the character Alpha is friends with the RPG's Kirbopher character in real-life, with Alpha moving to college and them reuniting on TOME. This is a nod to how Luckas' move for college influenced he and Niosi to develop the TOME concept.
*In the ending scene of [[Truth. Tears. Ambition.]], where all the players meet up in real life, Michael is actually played by Mike Luckas, the original inspiration for Alpha, instead of his voice actor, Blake Swift.
*Mike Luckas was also the original voice of Alpha in TOME's predecessor ''[[w:c:ttadventures:TV Tome Adventures|TV TOME Adventures]]''. He reprises the role in the [[April Fools Special]].
*Alpha's appearance in the RPG adaptation resembles [[w:c:kidicarus:Pit|Pit]], the main character of [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo|Nintendo's]] ''[[w:c:kidicarus:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series.

'''Saturndiva''' is a minor character in TOME, of the [[Fighter]] class with the power of double blades. She is good friends with both [[Whyti (TOME)|Whyti]] and [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]].
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''For their personalities, Whyti and Saturndiva both went through some fun exaggerations of their original counterparts. [[Whyti (TOME)|Whyti]], being the shy one, I made very wispy and a little airy-fairy, but not flat-out stupid and still with plenty of cute. She's definitely got some fangirl sensibilities, in terms of her "attraction" to [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], if you wanna call it that. I thought it was more funny than anything else and never took it too seriously, as it's hard to take Nylocke seriously by extension.
''Sat, on the other hand, I made much more coarse and tomboyish compared to the original, but I always saw her as a bit masculine when writing her back then so I was able to get that across better this time around. The strange thing is, by the time I started animating her first scene, I realized without intending to at all, that I had written her manner of speaking like a female-equivalent to me. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing, but it was interested.
''Lastly, I wanted to make them fit a bit more into the overall group schematic, which is why I made them into [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]]'s clique, as opposed to just being random "other players". As I had stated in her breakdown, Flamey is meant to be the most-normal of the main five, and quirks aside, Sat and Whyti are relatively normal, so it allowed me to set up some natural conversations between the three girls. Their first talking scene in the third episode definitely dragged a little too long in retrospect, but I still like the three girls' dynamic a lot. I definitely wanna make use of Whyti and Sat in future episodes where there's room to fit them in. <ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Saturndiva-291061507</ref>
===Season 1===
==Personality==
Saturndiva is very confident and a bit tomboyish. She and Whyti are often seen by each others side, occasionally hanging out with Flamegirl as well.
==Relationships==
* '''[[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]]''': She, Saturndiva and Whyti are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of [[;Mechcity]].
* '''[[Whyti (TOME)|Whyti]]''': She, Saturndiva and Flamegirl are close friends, and often hang out within the confines of ;Mechcity. Saturndiva also battled alongside Whyti in the Genimi Tournament, facing two unnamed players in the first round, one of which was immediately taken out by his partner. They were defeated in the next round by [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] and Flamegirl.
==Abilities==
* '''Twin Boomerang''': A projectile attack that allows the user to throw two spinning blades at once that will return to them upon throwing.
* '''Cross Cut''': A charging dash attack in which the user makes a swift cutting attack across the field.
==Trivia==
* Saturndiva lives in Vancouver, Canada.
* Saturndiva is one of Christopher Niosi's favorite characters among the supporting cast.

'''100,000,001 (feat EileMonty)''' is a song that was released with the TOME: 5-Year Anniversary Special Album. The lyrics were written by Chris Niosi (Kirbopher) and performed by Eileen Montgomery (EileMontyVA). 100,000,001 (feat EileMonty) is available for [https://tomeseries.bandcamp.com purchase] on TOME's bandcamp page. The YouTube video for 100,000,001 was original uploaded by EileMonty on December 3rd 2016, but was deleted later for unknown reasons.
==Lyrics==
Out of the ever-growing a-hundred-million-and-one that I've met,<br>
There's no one else like you in this world, on that I'd bet!
Though there may be others that can make emotions stir within my head,<br>
None of them come close to what I'm feeling now that you have said...
No matter what the hurdles standing in our way.<br>
No matter what the hour if it's night or day.<br>
You're one out of a hundred-million, and I'm still feelin'<br>
Stronger than ever before.
And if they choose to still not understand,<br>
Or even if they think we're hopeless children and,<br>
Even if a hundred-million turn against us,<br>
You're still the one forever more!
Even if the only place where we can reconvene is in another world<br>
I still want nothing else out of a hundred million and one.<br>
As long as I have you I know that I've won!
You are the one,<br>
Out of all one-hundred-mil-li-on!<br>
You light my flame,<br>
When I'm with you, this is more than just a game!

Type and enter the password I'm hiding,<br>

I step into a world that I cherish,<br>
won't trade it any day.<br>
Everybody surrounding me knows<br>
the truth behind what I do. (Beat down!)<br>
I take heed but I crave to do battle.<br>
Standing on red and blue.
No matter the cost of victory,<br>
I'm coming back every time.<br>
Oh, and I don't care how many tries it takes,<br>
I know that eventually I'll beat you tonight.
You might think you've got this in the bag,<br>
but I've got a bag full of tricks.<br>
Now I know I'm not afraid to use them if you do<br>
try to mess with anybody that's part of my clique.
Don't you tell me how to play my game,<br>
'cos you don't know I'm winning.<br>
You don't have a clue what I'll be thinking.
Though I may have a skeleton or two<br>
tucked away in the dark. (Get down!)<br>
One thing I'll you can make sure I'll make do of,<br>
I'll be leaving a mark.
Nothing that you say can stop me now.<br>
I won't quit till I've won. (Let's go!)
So get ready to fight and stay on guard,<br>
now the battle is on!
==Trivia==
*The lyric in "Battle On!", "Though I may have a skeleton or two tucked away in the dark," is subtly referenced in the Season 2 theme, "[[Heroes Don't Ask Questions]]": "My skeletons have escaped my closet and they're out to let you know..."

'''Granda''' is a minor character in TOME who is usually seen hanging around with [[T-Bones (TOME)|T-Bones]]. An [[Animalistic]] character, appearing as a Stegosaurus, she is prone to random and violent fits of anger, usually directed towards [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]]. She lives in Saigon, Vietnam.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''For TOME, I kept their racial-origins and tried to cast them appropriately as well. Their dynamic was interesting enough to begin with, but I wanted to make better use of it and spice things up for the characters. [[T-Bones (TOME)|T-Bones]], being the older one, made for a good level-headed big guy that tries to keep an eye out for Granda and play alongside her.
''I decided to make Granda very loud and violent in nature, mainly for the sake of comedy as it made for some really funny scenes between her and [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]], who she's fixated on due to her constant losses from him. I imagine her being relatively chilled out when playing with T-Bones, but otherwise doesn't care enough to hold herself back; her rage is almost a sign of her actual enjoyment.
''I don't so much view Granda as a statement of "video games make kids more violent" or anything preachy like that, but rather that she represents people who are completely unbridled in their opinions and actions online because they feel like it's not important enough to affect their real life. Because of this, Granda feels no repercussions for her actions. T-Bones is more the type to apologize, even on someone else's behalf, as he feels a sense of responsibility to everyone around him, even though it's just a game. The two balance each other out nicely.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Granda-307151715</ref>

==Lyrics==
Out of the ever-growing a-hundred-million-and-one that I've met,<br>
There's no one else like you in this world, on that I'd bet!
Though there may be others that can make emotions stir within my head,<br>
None of them come close to what I'm feeling now that you have said...
No matter what the hurdles standing in our way.<br>
No matter what the hour if it's night or day.<br>
You're one out of a hundred-million, and I'm still feelin'<br>
Stronger than ever before.
And if they choose to still not understand,<br>
Or even if they think we're hopeless children and,<br>
Even if a hundred-million turn against us,<br>
You're still the one forever more!
Even if the only place where we can reconvene is in another world<br>
I still want nothing else out of a hundred million and one.<br>
As long as I have you I know that I've won!
You are the one,<br>
Out of all one-hundred-mil-li-on!<br>
You light my flame,<br>
When I'm with you, this is more than just a game!

Tsuzuku is a minor character in TOME, a [[Swordsman]] with the power of the Sun Blade. He always appears in conjunction with his friend and partner, [[Shogun (TOME)|Shogun]]. Shogun believes Tsuzuku is Japanese, but Tsuzuku actually lives in Shanghai, China. He reveals his true country of origin during the Gemini Tournament.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''In this version, since the “secondary” characters such as Shogun and Tsuzuku were still abundant and I didn’t want them to go to waste, I tried to give them a more specific and individualized purpose, instead of them all being “those other guys”. While most of them, such as [[Saturndiva (TOME)|Saturndiva]] and [[Whyti (TOME)|Whyti]], are allies to [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]] and company in varying capacities, this time I decided to make Tsuzuku and Shogun a bit more on their own. This meant making them into opponents instead of allies!
I kept their dynamic of being bro’s with each others, albeit making it a bit more frat-boy and douchey, which worked for their opening scene playing off of Alpha’s innocent arrogance to his popularity. I thought the two of them seeking to be noticed by people would be a different kind of motive I haven’t explored, especially with the advent of the TOME ranking system. Their combined sarcastic wit versus Alpha’s unexpected comeback both in words and action made for a really solid beginning to Episode 05.
Additionally, their choice of Japanese usernames are meant to be remnants of many an internet-goer’s “weeaboo phase” if you’ll forgive that description, but the funny thing is, I picture that Shogun has no idea that Tsuzuku is really Chinese, believing him to be of Japanese decent and finding him much cooler from a blind fanboyish perspective. Tsuzuku, not having many friends in person, is open to Shogun’s advances of wanting friendship based on his incorrect assumption. There’s some depth to these two I may want to explore later…<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Tsuzuku-338631372</ref>

'''Shogun''' is a minor character in TOME, a [[Swordsman]] with the power of the Moon Blade. He always appears in conjunction with his friend and partner, [[Tsuzuku (TOME)|Tsuzuku]]. Despite being from Texas, Shogun is obsessed with all things Japanese, as evidenced by his screenname and his devotion to Tsuzuku. Ironically, Tsuzuku later reveals that he is actually Chinese.

'''Hyprelynx''' is a minor [[Animalistic]] character in TOME with the power of strobes. She appears to be a relatively new player to the game, and is friends, both in the game and in real life, with [[Elescope (TOME)|Elescope]].
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''When writing [[Dragon Drama|Episode 06]], I knew I wanted the primary focus to be on [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] and [[Gamecrazed (TOME)|Gamecrazed]]'s bonds strengthening, ultimately leading up to their partnership for the [[Gemini Tournament]]. Although the story of that episode had no direct equivalent inspired by [[TvTome Adventures|TTA]], I thought the task of helping Hyprelynx find her missing friend Elescope would be a fun little side-story to help Nye and GC's bond. Hyprelynx and Elescope were easy to adapt and fun to write for; it was as simple as just building upon their previously-existing personalities to fit my updated writing style.
''Hyprelynx I wanted to be a bit less "cutesy", but still keep her young (she's the youngest of show's cast of characters) and upbeat. Her adoration of Nylocke worked pretty naturally. Elescope I still kept very "normal" but went with a little bit of paranoia, like one of the types of folks who doesn't want their real-life identities to spread around the internet. [Jesse] Nowack and Mike Hecht did a solid job for these characters' performances. I had previously planned another pair of actors, who both ended up being unavailable during the time of recording, so Jessi and Mike did me a big favor and filled in. They captured the personalities just right and their dynamic was very memorable, to me anyway. Here's hoping the fans liked their characters as much as the episode!<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Hyprelynx-358447812</ref>

'''Archy''' is a minor character in the TOME series, a [[Fighter]] with the power of magical archery. He acts as [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]]'s partner in the [[Gemini Tournament]].
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''In this version, I knew from the beginning that I wanted to go in a very different direction with the newly-christened "Archy". Like with many of the others, I exaggerated his qualities to something more defined. His awkwardness and quirkiness made him a goofy but lovable fanboy who tags along and just wants to help.
As for his actual role in the story, in [[Infectuation|Episode 07]] specifically, Archy represented something for the story arc that [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] goes through during the "pre-tournament" time. Archy represents all that the character has left, after too many poor choices in a row, what Kirb was left with was Archy, who was a pure, unbridled supporter of his.
I don't know if many people picked up on this, but I actually tried to leave it kind of ambiguous as to if Kirb had some dealings with Archy in the past or if that opening scene was the first time he had ever spoken to him personally. Either way, Archy ended up being really funny in the final draft of Episode 07's script and his interactions with Kirb helped really lighten the mood in between all of the dire, serious moments. I felt those scenes also made his character sympathetic enough to where you can accept their partnership by the end of the story, even though Kirb's put into a "dark place", he's not completely alone.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Archy-366206746</ref>

==Personality==
Archy is obsessed with [[Kirbopher (TOME)|Kirbopher]] and spends the majority of his debut episode trying to win over Kirbopher's affection and partnership for the [[Gemini Tournament]]. He is somewhat shy, timid, and gullible, but persistent and brave. However, his combat skills are not the best in the world, and he gets eliminated from the Gemini Tournament in the first round.

'''Skeight''' is the alternate account created by [[Doubling (TOME)|Doubling]] in order to join [[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]] in TOME. Acting as a crazed fanboy, Skeight was an attempt by Doubling to informally apologize to Rockoon without having to show his face. Rockoon only accepted him as a partner because he couldn't find another one for the Gemini Tournament. He disposes of Skeight as soon as possible, using a "super move" to throw Skeight out of the arena. However, Skeight continues to follow him until Rockoon finally snaps and tells him to leave and that he never cared about him. Skeight reluctantly leaves, but not before revealing his true identity to Rockoon by calling him a "motherscratcher." Whether or not he will return to TOME is unknown.
Skeight speaks in a dialect imitation of Rockoon, attempting to get on his good side. Although he is an alternate account for Doubling, whether or not this account is hacked is unknown.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''...that is, however, until I came up with a new idea to make use of [[Sk8rboi (TTA)|him]]. I think it came to me when I realized [[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]] and Skeight (or Raccoon and Sk8rboi, initially) were both the shrimpy, goofball villains of their time in the story of TTA and would've been amusing as a pair of troublemakers. I had set it up so that Doubling was going to re-appear during the tournament, but realized that with how big of a deal he made about never playing TOME ever again, it wouldn't make any sense for him to be so-easily roped into Rockoon's rambunctious activities again. That's when it hit me...when I made the "Hackers" short, I had shown that Doubling had a begrudgingly fun little "attachment" to Rockoon, getting some sort of minimal enjoyment out of blowing things up during their mission together.
Despite being worried about the dangers of the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]], he grew to miss his time spent with Rockoon and realized he wanted to get that feeling back again...but being too prideful to show his face again, the "player" behind Doubling created a disguise. An alternative account and a new persona with which to "fool" Rockoon into thinking he was just some fanboy that wanted to roll with him. Somehow, Rockoon falls for it and takes pity on the poor soul...whether he knows it's Doubling or not, however, is up for debate.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Bishipp-478707955</ref>

'''Thorment''' is an antagonistic character in TOME with an almost fanatical obsession with the [[Kajet|Forbidden Power]]. To date, he has only appeared in one episode and was quickly defeated by [[Alpha (TOME)|Alpha]]. Thorment lives somewhere in the UK.
==Biography==
====Official Notes====
''At an early stage of the story's development, "Thorment" as he was renamed, was going to be a hacker again, as he was originally. He would've been a selfish money-grubber executing a mission alongside another hacker. However, when [[The Warring Demons|Episode 10]] was being written, we decided to utilize him for a different purpose, but still holding true to the spirit of the character. Instead of being a hacker, Thorment was made into a creepy obsessor who had learned the rumors of the Forbidden Power through [[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]] and company's spreading word of the incident in Episode 05. As heard in the crowd scene of Episode 10's opening, the rumor had spread much further since then and making some people uneasy...but Thorment wanted to know more and harasses Alpha and the others to learn more.
It was interesting to have a new baddie show up that ISN'T a hacker and just having a guy who's a real genuine creeper. Strangely enough, THIS was the character I originally wanted Martin Billany to voice before I eventually cast him as [[Nylocke (TOME)|Nylocke]] instead. For Episode 10, Thorment was voiced by Harry Partridge, who's a major inspiration and has supported my work for many years, so it was great to work with him too.<ref>https://www.deviantart.com/kirbopher15/art/TOME-Thorment-422386616</ref>
===Season 1===
Thorment first appears near the beginning of episode 10, along with a large group of other players who are intent on attacking Alpha to see if the Forbidden Power is real. Thorment, the last of the group, states that he knows the Forbidden Power is real, and demands that Alpha show it to him. When Alpha refuses, Thorment attacks the group in an attempt to force the Forbidden Power out of Alpha. Alpha engages and defeats him with a single Vulcan Fist, although the Forbidden Power attempts to take him over. Thorment then swears there will be "others," mentioning that he knows he's "not the only one who's interested."
==Personality==
Thorment is the first antagonist in TOME who is not a Hacker or affiliated with one. He simply has become obsessed with the rumors surrounding Alpha to the point that he will do anything to catch a glimpse of the Forbidden Power. [[Flamegirl (TOME)|Flamegirl]] even comments that she can't tell if he's a hardcore roleplayer or just really creepy.
==Relationships==
==Abilities==
* '''Spell Swarm''': A rapid-fire projectile attack that homes in an opponent, quickly surrounding them like a barricade.
* '''Black Wing''': An technique that allows the user to temporarily sprout wings and navigate through the air.
==Trivia==
* In the audio commentary for Episode 13, Chris Niosi reveals that Thorment, and his partner from TTA, [[Thorture (TTA)|Thorture]], were originally going to be hackers in season 2 who were sent out to retrieve the [[Drain Edge]] (with the Forbidden Power inside of it) from [[;Sanctuary]] partway through the season. After Episode 10 was rewritten as the season 1 finale, Thorment's character was changed from a hacker to an obsessive creep and Thorture was written out completely.

'''"Hard Reset"''' is a [[Terrain of Magical Expertise (2011 series)|TOME]] short created to celebrate the 11th year anniversary of the webseries. This short was written and produced by Deven Mack, the voice of [[Rockoon (TOME)|Rockoon]].
==Synopsis==
''“Hard Reset“ is an animated short taking place a short time after the end of the final episode, following the continued trials of a certain ex-villain.''
==Plot==
==Trivia==
* This is the first short in over 11 years for the 2011 web series after the release of the short AvZ. This short is also the second one to be written by Deven Mack after [[Rockoon's Modern Strife]], and Mack reprising his role as Rockoon after the release of the RPG's Itch.io demo.
* The short was released to Newgrounds on November 21, 2022. This marks the first TOME related short/project to be released on the site since the "[[Gemini Tournament Yang]]" episode was released on December 28, 2013 in nine years.
* Despite the short being a continuation of the 2011 series finale, the color scheme for the characters as well as their design and outfits (such as Rockoon wearing a hat and scarf) are vaguely similar to the design/color style of the RPG adaption.
** The new designs were created by Toydrill (credited as Tai W.), and additional animation was provided by Faelions.
* Archy in this short is now voiced by Jan Aponte, replacing Micah Solusod.
** According to Niosi, he initially approached Solusod to reprise his role but he declined due to unavailability.
